Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable?
Very sturdy. A buddy of mine told me about this mixer for dj gigs and he said that he doesn't even have a bag for it (I could never do that to my gear!). Love the warm sound and the seeming unlimited headroom for mics and the extra inputs for the occasional live band that would play with me.
Features
What do you consider to be the best features of this product? What features would you add to this product if you could?
It's small footprint is great when I'm out on the road. I personally thought that i wouldn't like the fact that the faders are knobs instead of slider faders but once I started using this, believe me I got over it. The echo effect is also very nice for vocals but i would've like to see more control of the lower end sound, but what can you expect from such a small mixer.
Ease of Use
How easy is this product to use? How easy is the product to use with other products? Did it take long for you to learn to use this product? Was the manual helpful? How playable do you consider this product to be?
Anyone can use this and it's simple form is not overwhelming for the novice. My little brother is learning the game and with this mixer i was able to give him a little lesson on the basics of live sound.
Sound
How is the tone?
Very warm, clean, and crisp tone. Before this, I would connect my dj rig straight to my powered speakers and was never wowed by the sound. This gives you that WOW factor.
Reliability
How has it stood up over time?
Built like a tank. The knobs are sturdy and the mixer doesn't feel like a plastic piece of junk (Sorry Behringer users). Very nice.
Overall
Your general opinion of this product.
I would recommend this to any DJ that cares how his system sounds. A small footprint with great headroom for mics and the built in FX are great. I can't wait to start recording with this but haven't found the time yet!

Great, once you put your hands on it...you can feel the quality of the product, every single item A & H make it's a Semi-Pro and Pro level.
Features

The sound is clean,clear...not colored at all. I wish it had more outputs (the software), not only one stereo out, that way you could route them into any DAW and make really amazing things with it.

It worked "Out of the box", no hassle trying to figure how to use it.

I said it before, it doesn't color the sound, you hear it as it should be...clean.
