Sound Quality:
I use this as the front end to my PC DAW. The channel outputs run directly into my presonus firestation for AD conversion. The mixer electronics are extremely low noise and transparent in nature. The FX are done at 24 bit 46 khz format lending clear , high headroom quality. It has a very felixible design that lends itself to live or recording purposes. |
|
Ease of Use:
I've used mixers in the past and found these controls intuitive and easy to understand. Everything is placed in a logical manner. Vertical for channel horizontal for function. |
|
Durability:
I've been using it for about a year now and it's stood the test of time so far. The electronics is still smooth and moves without any crackles or other audible artifacts. |
