Alesis MultiMix16 USB 2.0

soundonsound.com

The Alesis MultiMix 16 USB 2.0 offers an enticing blend of features for both live mixing and studio recording, with 18 recording channels, eight phantom-powered mic preamps, and robust EQ options making it a versatile choice. However, its lack of insert points and inconvenient post-fader direct outputs for computer recording may deter some users. While it shines in live settings due to its solid build, ease of zero-latency monitoring, and built-in effects, these features might be redundant for users focused solely on computer recording. Overall, it's a practical option if you need a dual-purpose mixer and audio interface, but not without its compromises.
