Fostex 812 Recording & 2016 Line Mixers (SOS Apr 90)

muzines.co.uk

The Fostex 812 impresses with its compact design and versatile features, making it perfect for home studios. It offers 12 input channels, flexible routing options, and a useful equalizer section that surpasses typical budget mixers. While its post-fade solo feature is a bit unconventional, the overall design ensures ease of use. The internal power supply and robust build are plus points, though the phantom power is only 24V, limiting compatibility with some microphones. Despite minor quirks, the Fostex 812's blend of functionality and user-friendly design make it a compelling choice for musicians seeking a reliable mixing console.
