It is a small table in mackie analog channels with 4 microphones (switchable phantom power supply for all channels) and four stereo line level (of Jack) there are two auxiliaries and a "pre mix" and an entry- output to an external recorder such as (by RCA) is the master XLR and Jack. The power supply is internal, and especially, the rotary knobs. Metal shell, very strong including painting!

UTILIZATION

It's an analog mixer very, very classic, nothing complicated, very easy to carry as little light and Sufis to be placed between two devices.

SOUNDS

The sound of this table is pretty good. The preamps are pretty clear, and quite a few blows, the eq is quite accurate and efficient but no more, having only three fixed bands is not very practical, but for a console in this category can be not ask too much. Finally the sound that comes out of this machine is not too bright colored like on other consoles like that, especially at the risk of repeating myself not breathing or nuisance pests, like on other consoles cheaper and widespread . The problem is that the sound that comes out is the sound that goes well with a big kick-eq (which can be an advantage). I put 7 but it is very subjective.

OVERALL OPINION

I must say I find this very powerful console, in fact it is rather intended to premix the keyboard or sound with just the voices of a group any more. But it works fine. Only after several years of hard loyal service (over 4 years) has released a track, the horrible crackling microphone preamp! but the other slices are quite usable (one of the big advantages of the analog to digital). That said it's still reliable, much more than Berhinger which you have the fader in the fingers after three months of use. I did not pay but I know it's worth the price but no more. Since I switched to digital (Yamaha 01V96) is more expensive but more convenient. I recommend this console to those who want not "break the head" with big apareils but want good sound, for people who want opportunities for mixing larger is better to invest in bigger.
