OVERALL OPINION

Used sound to the front occasionally a decade on small configurations (1.5 KW).
I have not tried other models before buying it. It was my first console.
I love the many options for routing. This console is a real Swiss Army knife.
Live as sound recording / tracking, there is always a solution of routing (m ^ can push me up to 12 tracks in the recording head if you take the trouble to explore the manual and operation of auxiliary groups and other alt mix).
Its current owner uses it in his rehearsal space / home studio for preproduction.
A console that I struggled to sell despite its low price (150E) but can render great service from its low cost to purchase. She does her work modestly, but it does when m ^ me. Korean 90's, cheap, but usable.
What I like least, is his lack of character. but this is what I wanted.
When I bought the value was correct at the sight of many routing options available. resale (150E) is much better!
With experience, I will put a larger budget and I will direct to the material a little more plush.
