  FP User Reviews's review

  Characteristics

  The layout is superb. Perfect for mixing dance and electronic. But scratchin on the thing sucks. There's no cross fader curve adjustment.
  
  
  
  $275

  Utilization

  Very very easy to use. Just forget about the level meters. They don't seem to be callibrated to the volume ranges that the mixer is able to reach.
  
  
  
  I think it's preety sturdy. I haven't dropped it or abused it in any way. But it's started to develop a hum through the third channel's left side output. It's inaubible from the master out, just through the phones jack.

  Sounds

  The sound is descent but it ain't no Rane. The E.Q. is the down fall of this mixer. When you drop low's or high's down too far it drags the mid with it making it a mixer that requires constant attention to sound levels. If your used to it no one will know the difference in hearing it. First time users will get frustrated with it at first, especially if the used to an accelerated slope E.Q.

  Overall Opinion

  Overall it's a very consistent mixer. With more use and remembering it's quirks you can get some good sound out of it. And being that it was under $300 and a list of $700 I'm still pretty stoked. Awesome if it's your first mixer and spin electronic.

  Characteristics

  This is not a 'scratch' mixer but the fader is incredibly loose. It feels like a real scratch mixer, and also has awesome features for mixing like kill switches. it also has effects loops which i probably will never use but i know they are there if i need an fx unit and has three channel, three band eq.
  
  
  
  Price paid
  
  
  
  $319 for a floor model

  Utilization

  It took me a little while to get all the plugs in the right slots, it is kind of deceiving how to set up a two turntable set up.

  Sounds

  Sound quality is awesome, it is focused on mixing but is also awesome for scratching. the eq's are awesome and so are the kill swtiches.

  Overall Opinion

  The buttons are all metal and the mixer is built of solid steel.
  
  
  
  this mixer is awesome and i will have it for a long,long time.

  Characteristics

  It has everything I need, kill switches are amazing. EQ's are decent. Cue meters all work nicely, and the AUX send/return is usefull. It would be nice if it had a headphone cue pan and a cross fader curve though.
  
  
  
  Price paid
  
  
  
  $375.00

  Utilization

  Very easy to use, everything is layed out well. Manual is not necessary to use, but it's alright.
  
  
  
  Never had any problems, and the build quality feels very sturdy.

  Sounds

  Very good sound quality, I've never experienced any problems. I thought the S/N ratio would be better, but that's probably because I'm using cheap wires.

  Overall Opinion

  Amazing piece of mixer.

  Characteristics

  I miss separate VU's for each channel but otherwise I think it's plenty bang for the buck. The effects loop in particular is wicked - it's quiet, has both send and return controls and has both a pre- and post-fader alternative.
  
  
  
  Price paid
  
  
  
  $449 brand new

  Utilization

  It's so easy to use even my grandmother could operate it. Everything is logically laid out, every switch and such is in the right place. Hooking up my CD, turntables and effects unit and getting to grips with the whole mixer took me approx. 10 minutes and after that it was easy as stealing candy from a child.

  Sounds

  Considering the price, I think it has no real competitors besides the Ecler SMAC30 in the same price range. It obviously do not compare to, say, a Rane or an Allen & Heath, but for smaller parties and clubs and home use it performs really well.

  Overall Opinion

  I wouldn't trust it for a world tour, but I've had it for a few smaller gigs and it's stood up to abuse really well. The buttons feel great, and my only nag on it is that the knob on the crossfader tends to feel a little loose from time to time. I never use the crossfader though, so for me that's no problem. I've contacted their customer support twice (via e-mail) before getting it, and both times I've had a reply within 24 hours, which has been both helpful and nice.
  
  
  
  Of course, there are always a few things you'd want to change - the one that springs to mind are the VU's and the fact that it's like 11.5" wide, making it completely impossible to fit in a coffin or a case. Dumb thing. On the other hand, I'd not hesitate to recommend it because although it has its flaws and there are perhaps better mixers out there, this is a great intermediate mixer that would work well in a longue or at a small club.

  - The cross is very flexible technology (CPV)
  
  - The table is sturdy I have no problem with and I use it for mixing and scratching and a cross worn by all is well!

  Overall Opinion

  I have for over a year and I can say that it is a very good restaurant, but if you want I suggest you scratch a PMC-07, except to the mix it's all good!
  
  No I did not try many table before buying it, but rather after purchase. The price / quality ratio is very good.
  
  If I had my choice again I would hesitate to be the new PMC-08 Pro Hybrid.
