    UTILIZATION

    Modular console.
    Available in several versions at the time we chose to order according to its need. Number of Mic / Line / Mono / Stereo etc. ...

    This console is simple to use

    The manual is in English, it is clear enough.

    SOUNDS

    The console is clear but if you push the preamp input, sound heating.

    The EQ is simple but effective.

    One of the quietest console I had the opportunity to hear.

    OVERALL OPINION

    For quite some time.

    I have tried many models since 1996: Tascam M3500 / Mackie CR1604 (not VLZ) / Tac Bullet, Scorpio, Matchless / Soundcraft 200 / Chilton QM-3 / Lafont Producer / TL Audio M3 & M4 16 / Souncraft DC2020 / Amek Einstein , BC2.

    What I like most about the Minimix Mk2:

    - THE SOUND

    - The compressors

    - The number of admissions for the size of the console (18 inputs and very compact)

    - The EQ is simple but effective

    - The blast almost non-existent

    What I like least? Nothing ... Ah, if it lacks an EQ with 12 full parametric knobs (Freq / db / Q)! lol ...

    Be serious!

    The value for money on the second hand market is more than good given that this type of new console was costing.
