Winter NAMM 2012 News
This is a great console and I was ecstatic that I was able to pick it up for such a great price. The board has held up well; only recently have the little gremlins that do some strange things with the LED's and dirty up the pots have started showing up. However, as with any board, that's one aspect that the user has to come to expect.
The Toft Audio Designs ATB-24 is an amazing way to get a classic Trident console for a small portion of the price. It's sleek and the design is great, not to mention it has a great sound and pretty much all of the features you'd want in a modern day analog console. Professional studios looking for a console to compliment their outboard preamps...
+ the clear sound + the ease of use to mix on + it's small footprint + it's aux matrix - 60mm faders - the powersupply is not 19 inch rackable.
I use this mixer in live applications. just playing recorded music for a banquet or live on stage with vocals, keyboards..etc. I have never had a problem. I put it in a road case which makes it easy to transport. This thing is really light weight. Since I use all powered speaker setup. This really helps to keep it compact. I stack the mi...
Overall, this mixer has everything you need to get the job done. Built like a tank. From what I have seen for powered mixers on the market this has them all beat especially for the money, power and features. I also own a Yamaha EMX512SC powered series, this blows it out of the water. Right now the SoundCraft 400B is better priced, can'...
This is a quality product add some quality 500 speakers, insert your sound source lines, set your levels and you are ready for action. Economy price for quality power mixer. Vocals can be get crowded adjust for levels. It is very clean, feedback is easy to control if and when it happens, graphic EQ on mains out works like a charm, slide faders s...
The best thing I liked about this mixer was how cheap I got it for. I never bought it for live use, but couldn't afford a real mixer for my first 16 track recorder so this thing fit the bill. Eventually I replaced it with a Mackie 32x8 (which I hated), then a Tascam 2516 (which was bearable), and finally a Soundcraft Ghost 32 (which I love). ...
This mixer produces a good clean sound to the new powered QSC K 12's I have. More head room overall from the board on the Mackie 808s powered mixer I just retired. The board design has good quality with the knobs and sliders with the exception of the EFX selector knob, which seems of less quality from the rest of the board. The EFX are clean and...
Overall, I have had my mixer for 2 1/2 years performs perfectly week in and week out. Have it paired with 2 Peavey Impulse 1015s pushed by a Peavey PV900 amp. I also run 2 Peavey 15" Black Widow 500w wedge monitors pushed by a Peavey PV900 amp. Other auxes go to headphone mixes, a set of voice only monitors, 1 for effects, and 1 for a more "tune...
Overall, The thing I like most about this full featured mixer is that it is most likely the lightest of all 8 Channel Mixers. Lets face it, in this price range your not buying a lot of new technology. With Yamaha you will get rock solid reliability (as long as your not abusive) and the basic features you need. With all the other stuff that I hau...
