- How many lanes, bus attendant, of dparts, returns ...)?

3-way, the center channel fader is adjustable (it is default to "linear", not exponential)
the other 2 faders are adjustable in front, I use personal in linear

- What is the type of connectors (RCA, Jack, XLR ...)?
Conventionally, a master XLR, jack a booth, send a return jack and RCA inputs

- The effects section is it intgre? ...
no effect, but a remarkable return send me volumes could not be more practical (he said without having test ...)

- What is the precision of chantillonage (bits / kHz)?

100% analogue

UTILIZATION

- The configuration gnrale Is it easy?

trs clear, despite its small size, the console is not overloaded, the cross is accessible to trs scratcher

I went from Rodec or consoles like the Allen & Heath rane, and I do not regret it! I mix of hardcore, no scratch

I like consoles like that, a short linear fader, which allow a mix nervous, or you can play well with the cross fader and

the EQ is very easy accessible, well hang hands

in short, everything is on hand for an electro techno mix is ​​great!

I liked the least long faders or sliders or Rodec allen studios, and these consoles taient my taste too large (must be 1000 terminals for the treble equalizer, sucks ^ ^)

solid level: above Allen & Heath, same as Rodec

SOUNDS

- The console is transparent?

yes

- Introduced she breath?

totally not! hat on this point, are extremely good phono pramp!

- The qualiseur is it effective? ...

cut it, and it sounds good no worries this level

I prcise the auto gain a little gadget is a bit pointless (compression introduces a questionable sometimes rhausse musicality without the high mid and bass in a cut)

So I cut it
noise level (I think eh, it's subjective): the xone 42 sounds better (no EQ forcment by its cons)
(Sound master xone is still a killing ...)
rane of reminds me of a Rodec master output, so it's good trs trs!

in fact it is rather the sound of the xone is typ Describes all these consoles is a pure sound (for possessing a UREI 1603, a denon dnx100, the diffrence is more than evident in quality and its gain, Reserved in potato)

I put 9 ^ ^

OVERALL OPINION

- What is the particular feature you like best and least?

most: reserve of gain and master pramp
its quality
It's personal, but the ergonomics, small faders (Penny & Giles to the fact virtually indestructible =)
minimum: mixing techno, a sound well-typed t have fun, like the xone, but as this table is as axis hip hop / scratch, I guess the choice of a neutral sound that t by rane

- Have you tried many other models before acqurir?

in order: denon dnx100, UREI 1603, xone42, Rodec CX1100, rane empath

- How do you report qualitprix?

This is where it Fache, it is still expensive
900 = best net price of french
850 probably in Germany or fr

a bit expensive, but hey it pays the quality rane (made in United States)

short, try to touch OCCAZ in good condition (the console is frankly unbreakable, solid, level fader of course, but also the rest)

- With the exprience, you do again this choice? ...

APRS possd test and have all these consoles is the one that I keep in the final
but hey, it's subjective
Note: rane line of cap cross fader and smooth plastic if you want to change (the original ones are soft trslgerement)
I kept the original ones

if you have any questions ...
