UTILIZATION

This is the first mixer I've ever had. She allowed me to start and to show my needs in this area.

It is ultra-easy to use, even being a beginner, I have never needed instructions to learn how to use it.

At that time, I was not recording or music. I had just bought it to manage more flexibly the elements of my hi-fi (instead of using the switch on my amp). This is why it was perfect. She had even taken two power devices that could feed two of my chain (+ or with strips), and only when the table was turned on, allowing to light my chain at the same time just by turning my little Inkel.

WARNING: Although it is almost 6-channel integrated phono preamps (I've never had a phono preamp with integrated table after it), it is not necessarily a DJ table, away from (it does Malhère not the fader that allows the "crossfade" between two pairs of channels - too bad). It's just a table for managing the public a number of components in stereo.

SOUNDS

Well, in sound quality, I do not remember more: so long ago that I never saw him and replaced with a Mackie (The famous Mackie VLZ 1202 then 1202) ... But this Cathegory then, I doubt it is really super good sound quality (I think especially the breath ...). Anyway, at that time, digital recording was not as democratized now (it's simple: it simply did not exist). It was in the good old cassette tape ...

OVERALL OPINION

Really perfect for beginners and determine its needs with mixing desk. And this for really cheap.

Advantages:
<ul>

8 channels (4 stereo channels so) just enough to manage a hi-fi (2 microphones and a recorder turntable + 1 + 1 CD + 1 tuner)

The master output out of 2 pairs of outputs (jack and Sinch) to remove the mixed sound of the amplifier chain and recorder

2 taken to run integrated to allow the chain to connect it s'allumme and off along the mixing desk (I've never seen it elsewhere later ^ ^)

Easily transportable

Cheap even new

</ul>
Its inconveignants:
<ul>

No adjustments for treble and bass per channel

No shipping - returns for external effects

</ul>
