I will use it very little to record or mix. I would certainly buy it again.Īlthough I will soon switch to a PC-based setup ( Motu 24 I/O + Cubase 4), I'll keep my console around to write songs, as a "mixer" for my rack gear and when my friends come over to jam.
But I needed more channels.Įxceptional value for money (in my particular case). I love the number of channels and the ultra-comprehensive configuration possibilities. One channel doesn't work anymore and 2 or 3 faders have issues. I bought it secondhand and have been using it for 7/8 years. Personally, I use the mixer's EQ for backup vocals and use specific rack gear for the main vocals. Fortunately, thanks to the flexible routing, you can get round the problem processing the signal with a real EQ. Equalizer? Really? There's an EQ: Without a doubt its weakest point. It can be exhausting to adjust a send/effect, for example. The preamps are noisy when you crank up the level. This is where you start understanding the price. Personally, I have a lot of fun routing the direct outs to other tracks. And inserts and direct outs on every channel. I use it in my home studio to record and mix together with an Akai DtD. Truly impressive connection options for the price.
Nothing to add to what has been said already. It's a real delight.Ī real pro would want and can certainly pay more!!!
Would I buy it again? Yes, I would!!! Unbeatable value for money!!!įor an amateur home studio. Neutral sound, routing possibilities that even some "big" consoles don't have, the faders lack "stiffness" on mine (they feel cheap). No noise (I tested it with a Neumann as overhead mic.Which I could NEVER afford!!!). I have nothing much to say in this regard, except that the faders on mine feel way too smooth, I would've preferred them to offer a little more resistance. Very easy to use (if you have the manual). It has all the features of a big console (which rarely have effects!). You can read the features on Apart from the fact that it doesn't have any effects (which doesn't bother me much, since I play drums). I went this weekend to Germany to get it. I'll be the first to write in this section.
