Value For Money :
Excellent
It's been 4 years it turned into a barn home studio / rehearsal room isolation but rather damp, and she wanders on stage. She seems fragile but yet does absolutely not default since purchase which is beginning to be distant. So there (fingers crossed), reliable models, just to make a balance with the other review below.
16 mono in
Rackable
Including basic FX
6 aux send with switch 5 / 6, 4 groups, 6 aux return
Eq para mid etc. ...
in short, everything has been said here.
Compact and complete, firewire Moreover, at this price is quite unique at the time it was even sensational. Feeling of weakness and overall quality at its price make me put an 8 Objective but very honorable.
UTILIZATION
"It was our first console, and as many say, it was a bit lost.
The average manual.
-The usual functions are accessible and understandable. The use of firewire for example with a sonic or cubase pro 6, is delicate and fastidious. The secret, he still had to know: Regression in Windows XP Service Pack 1, and then it starts to resume service over obediently. Updating of asio4all. I say this because the advice can be had before has this problem. XP SP2, Vista worse, render the console unusable on our dual core.
-The latency is hardly noticeable and therefore track record in multi happens generally in good condition. It was also right as we review below, this bug shrill sound. Reboot the PC and presto it goes. It is fairly trivial, since many models are out of our home studio, and it has to face.
So 7-because to achieve a satisfactory result had to look pretty, try, understand, and be patient and Zen, open-minded and do not give up our efforts have paid this price, we have still a nice multitrack console / recording. It is the job that comes in, what.
SOUNDS
Console transparent, almost too neutral, forcing prices to a class not expected to Allen & Heath. But in any case there are any recordings of live performances that sound like, and do not pity, to be happy having regard to budget / features.
The agaliseur not catch up too bad the weaknesses of his stuff pluggués detected in short, it does its job without straw.
As in most consoles "valid" no breath within any pull back. Normal, whatever.
So, I have found for soundtrack other than our various events with the Phonic, she finally made a good job, whatever the critics. Again good value price / functionality.
OVERALL OPINION
-More than 4 years of experience in sometimes a little rough for the fragile material, it is good without any weakness yet. She looks fragile, it was twisted a knob, but still works, it has not yet released (fingers crossed) and has not wandered badly. I think it's not ideal for this type of console, more at ease wedged in a comfortable home studio ^ ^.
- Did you try many other models before getting this one? 16 tracks console Peavey massive and well off (I have over the ref. Top), MG 10 / 2 Yamaha which I use for my services in parallel with smaller band live.
-Pros: Firewire (once defeated ..), 6 Aux send, 6 return. Compact (a plus for the next rack, a lower accessibility ..) Generally effective for a low price. Effects included even if basic.
-Cons: Appearance fragile. Compact (so yes it is more convenient for me a very wide console to handle. All connections to the back, but I prefer the bottom over (to taste). There is little help to implement efficiently with a PC a novice is clearly screwed up. It lacks a bit of color on the knobs, I sometimes dizzy when I make 3 scales in the evening and need to replace all potentiometers in orders in 10 minutes between each performance for the group Next.
I put him still an 8 because its price above the place of race condition on the cheap (Berhinger, T mix, Lem, etc. ..) because it offers better price for a neighbor, and therefore very low. After face of big brands, it is pitiful, but it is 4 times more expensive .. Yes 4 times the equivalent made in quality.
In hindsight I do not regret my choice, she taught me to mix, I got hold of it, and now I understand most of its competitors without much toil. She did her job with us, often tested, and it has not finished their service, if its components are agreements ^ ^. For the time RAS over 4 years of use grew. I think about taking a 32-track now, with support for larger benefits (small fish become big).
