* track mixer with MIDI
What to say... It's bulky!!! I mean it's bigger than any other rack mounted line mixer I can think of. But, it has MIDI, which is very unique for an analog mixer. Also the controls are all value pots and sliders, which means they can easily mess up values when they get dirty, and they will. The obvious benefit of this unit is the type of automation you may do with it. The onboard EQ levels are nice. Even at that size it is a welcomed tool just for the MIDI and XLR connectivity.
