Best value:
Excellent
Rack-mount model. Separated by small power connector on the back.
6 Input Stereo Jack.
2 microphone inputs on Jack / XLR. Phantom power supply.
For each of the 8 inputs:
sensitivity adjustment.
3-band EQ, parametric on the medium.
2 mono aux with a pre / post of your choice.
60mm fader.
2 stereo returns can also be used as additional stereo inputs, but also their departures 1 and 2 (How do they come then? Arrrh ... not got it!)
Output mix, a headphone output with dedicated knob that disconnects the output monitors, an integration into the mix, not on the canals, damage ...
The knobs and the power supply connector is a little fragile for heavy use, for cons, the carcass is made of hardened steel.
UTILIZATION
I bought it at a time when the effects were monotimbraux on keyboards. The interest was twofold:
Put a reverb on an auxiliary grade.
Able to use freely the effect of the sound of each keyboard.
Easy to use, even if the knobs are close to each other. However, I do not touch it every 5 minutes.
SOUNDS
The sound is very good today. Even the mic that I had never tested before today have nothing to be ashamed to face input card M-AUDIO FTP and ULTRA: more gain, a (small) bit out of breath, perhaps, but the sound seems less dry, more natural. In short, it still impresses me today!
I was never bothered by the wind on keyboards, there are very few: you must put the knobs at the bottom to hear it, so beware if you play something at that time!
OVERALL OPINION
Counting the annnées, well ... it's been! Beautiful life. Home studio use quiet, without any glitch.
Unique model, few offer as many consoles stereo inputs.
Very good price / quality ratio.
