Great little mixer for the price. You get a lot of routing possibillities and plenty of inputs.

As there is not too much in the signal path it actually sounds pretty good. The EQ is ok with a useful hi pass filter for cleaning up sounds with unuseful lo frequencies.

All channels have both XLR mic, balanced line in and an insert. Sadly you can't switch between the mic/line input but this sort of price doesn't usually give you that sort of function.

Routing is flexible enough, you can usually get any input to an output.

I would recommend this desk for a small setup if you need to record - whether it be to dat, adat or even digital.

Good Points
Good solid board for the price, sounds fine, good routing possibilities. Just small enough to fit in to a shot from a digital camera for total recall!
Bad Points
small faders er.....
