UTILIZATION

A breeze for anyone who has used a dj table / console. No need to read the manual.
No routing or in groups, so trs simple to use.
I AIM more functionality but unfortunately MODEL unique.

SOUNDS

This table has a trs really good sound, the mix is ​​clear and the sound of PCHE.
To make it stand out more, I use to insert an equalizer Main and Finalize TC
A lightweight breath noticeable when all channels are "open", but nothing alarming, no more than another table. The kind of little breath that is suppressed by the gate of the equalizer and becomes inaudible ds the song plays.

OVERALL OPINION

For several years I had a behringer MX3242X silent to me that the best compromise "number of / Qualitprix". We believe what we want to behringer but it was worth the money, find a 32-channel mono affordable, it's not easy. However, I could not go further in the quality of the mix and sound amlioration ... For several months I was leading a study and decide what a passage possibly numrique (yamaha 01V, behing DDX3216) or persist in analog.
What I sduit at first, the number of matches that stro a home studio east "electronic music" (but what do the other manufacturers! use two slices for the mono output of a synth Stereo, it is unnecessary and a waste! or most tables have a maximum single slices).

Two years after given day: I do it again this choice without hsitation!

When I reu this table, I had a moment in doubt because seeing such simplicity and look a bit "childish" I'm a bit of time inquit connection. Once on a branch and mix test, I immediately reassured t Soundcraft has sounds great! and the clarity and precision in the mix provides comfort and professionalism.
I AIM is the same concept of console (stro many ways) a little more of stro qqes and features in supplmentaires ... esprant that soundcraft hear me

Here are the pluses and minuses:

EXTRAS:
----------
- The quality and clarity of the mix (even when it is most important!)
- The simplicity of use
- Ergonomics gnrale (there is space between the faders, the knobs are accessible)

Cons:
-----------
- Connections in faade (on top), I prfr the rear, but hey, nothing serious.
- No egualiseur paramtrique on slices Stereo (why not have the same sense as the tranches mono? Who can do more can do less).
- No LED activity on each slice (useful to see at a glance what's playing or not)
- No return auxiliary (some a can be important), I'm not going to use
- Power Intgr (a can be an advantage for some but there is a risk of overheating or even appearance of breath, we'll see long).

I put 8 because I have AIM qqes more features (if I put 9 if only for the concept).

Anyway, I recommend that table all who seek the quality of sound, simplicity and a maximum track STEREO!
