| no question, they built this one to last. | | Features:
| for what you pay it's fantastic. FX are a nice bonus, but not something I'd rely on just because you can't tweak them. (same as any other mixer in this range) | | Ease of Use:

|      | | Subject: | You can't go wrong with this one! | | Quality:
| This mixer is made with lots of genius and is every bit as good as the Alan & Heath board I had a few years back minus about $350.00 from the price tag. It also has a lot more features than the Alan & Heath mixer. | | Features:
| Just about everything you could want from a mixer: Tons of very real preamp effects, NO audible self noise regardless of the number of tracks recorded! | | Ease of Use:
| If you know how to use a mixer, using this gem is like tying your shoes or... | | Sound:
| I'm recording through this with a MXL 770 and Apex 190 and the sound produced is HUGE and has lots of depth and punch - also this board requires a lot less track editing after recording than my last board did. | | Reliability:
| The Alesis Mutimix8 was actually the first mixer I ever bought...I used my last one for about two years and sold it towards a more expensive board (which turned out to be less desirable) so now I've got an Alesis Multimix8 again and I'm sure it will last a long time - these boards are solid and really well made. | | Overall:
| Great! I'd recommend this to anyone for professional use or someone looking to get into the world of music production...as I said before, you really can't go wrong with this one. | | Do you own this product?:
