Console

UTILIZATION

simple architecture, ideal for beginners, whether or sound to repeat a group in a bar. There is no easier to use, 1 win, 1 2-band equalizer pretend, 2 in (pre and post), 1 pan and 1 fader to the level of the slice. Aux.send 2 controls and 2 for the return 1 and 2.

Even without a manual, it is possible for a beginner to use.

SOUNDS

Is where it goes bad .. Needless to spread quality preamp or equalizer, is not his strong point, no or very little sharpness in the settings, the preamp are just there to allow the audio signal routing .. .

The console is far from transparent, a little residual noise if you push the master fader, which further increases if we watch too much preamp gain which are also spitting.
Must therefore remain at an average level if we want to exploit the console.

A big problem I do not know if it's a design problem, or just a faulty model, but a sort of hum when there appears the signal, whose intensity varies with the number of LEDs VU meter that fade away gradually as the signal drops.

Faders (60mm) trees are fragile, tend to spit if you take good care ..

OVERALL OPINION

I bought this console in the first rehearsals with my band ... She has the advantage of being compact yet comprehensive (for its size to start, that's all that you can find him ..
Today, it is best to begin to use equivalent buy cheap second hand one behringer (eurorack type, etc ...) Well, for it can always use help, especially if mini budjet.

That said, 8 years later it still works ...
