The console rack in 19 "through the brackets that are on the edge of the console and it takes up is very quick to do and it's handy to put in a flight when one carries Although very much strong is the yamaha!
in terms of the data sheet you can refer to other site notices or the seller.
I put 9 because it is very well thought out but some direct input microphones It would be nice. Finally, at this price and this quality we will not Chipotte.

UTILIZATION

The configuration of the console is very simple, the path of his logic is like most analog consoles. many possibilities of mixing are possible, personally I used to animmer the night (2 CD player, computer, mp3 player, two microphones, a compressor limiter gate, a distribution of 1 KW) to mix a group in concert with around 400 (Battery: 4 microphones, Bass: a microphone, guitar: a microphone, piano with a microphone on the same track in a synth line, djembe 2: 2 microphones, a didgeridoo: a microphone, a player cd, an mp3 player and a computer on the return to) and I also used the studio for the same group (recording with Cubase SX).
As you can see its possibilities are endless although to my taste a dozen of more would not be too much but after it is over budget so I had him just a BOSS BX 16 coupled to all its sources lignes.le is worse than the yam, but it's been fine.

SOUNDS

J etrouve console very transparent, it is enough to know a minimum, whether mixed correctly and a can pressure you get a get a great sound, as I say it's already ais yamaha, the brand is not joking with quality.
some say the equalo is not right, it's true that it is a bit aggressive but with the usual (a few hours on the console and it's good) it becomes very handy and quite a few things ppermet , you just have not overdosed penssé!
Unless you grow all the knobs to max there is no breath on the console (at least a little but once the mix is ​​committed there is nothing and should have supersonic ears to hear.

OVERALL OPINION

I bought this console there about 3 years to 290E and I do not really regret the purchase. now I need more tracks but it is still very comprehensive and with the BOSS that I have paired it works again. I love everything about this console, nothing has dessu in three years, even the manual is very well and am really explains how the console market and provides guidance for mixing beginners. the ratio q / p is very good because it is very fine for a console that I would describe as almost proffessionnnelles sound is bon.quant behringer we see the same price that appears to be one and its really a crap about it use a while it is clear that the yam is is a very good compromise. I think if my needs were the same that 3 years ago I would do this choice without hesitation. before it was I had not tried many other models but I have tried a lot since I and compared with many other parraissent only be me as well are the Soundcraft or the Mack .
