Value For Money :
Excellent
This is a console 11 inputs (5 mono, 3 stereo), which is quite curious and original, but may suit some configurations (including mine!). 3-band EQ on all channels 2 subgroups, 5 outputs, two effects inserts, a headphone output. For the price, that's all you can wait, I think.
UTILIZATION
The manual is clear, comprehensive but ... in English, if I remember correctly! That said, it's not a big problem: the table works like all other tables and is rather well designed and ergonomic. Everything is very solid.
SOUNDS
Some find that the consoles Phonic sound a bit metallic. This is not my opinion. For me, the sound is neutral. The equalizer, moreover, is very good. In contrast, the mic preamps are really poor: Can not directly connect a condenser microphone on it! Obligaoire external preamp. But hey, the price of the table, one would expect ...
OVERALL OPINION
I use the mm1705 for nearly a year and I am delighted. The sound that comes out of this console is very good, and I never found the slightest breeze! Phonic is not a household name in France. I think it's a shame, because their consoles are, in my opinion, very good. The only problem if you want to work with a condenser microphone is that it will buy an external preamp and more. Alternatively, for dynamic microphones and instruments, it's really perfect.
