As my studio is pretty small and simple today, I won’t need a monster-mixer. I need at least 3 stereo inputs ( 6 mono) and at least one microphone preamp. And I want like zero disturbance!
The budget is maximum 200 ¤
Any ideas? Tell me what you use, and what you think!
I can’t tell you from experience, but I just recently went through the same thing and am waiting on a mixer in the mail. I went with a Yamaha MG series mixer (MG102c). The MG series is supposed to be some budget mixers Yamaha has been making in Chinese factories, but I have heard that are pretty decent for the price. I mainly got one because it was 1. Cheap and 2. Not Behringer. Also, it’s worth looking into getting a used Mackie 1202 on eBay or the like. I hear that’s also a really good mixer for someone on a budget.
I had a Behringer Eurorack, it was a pile of noise, I don’t recommend it, but it did the job and I didn’t particularily hate it. If you have a chance, check out the Soundcraft Compact series. I recently bought the Compact 4 and I absolutely love it. A big improvement over my previous Behringer. Reviews of this mixer, scattered throughout the interweb are very positive.
Good choice, Mackie makes very good mixers. I have a Mackie 1402 vlz myself, I bought it 5-6 years ago or so and have been very satisfied with it since then.
yamaha or mackie,
nice lil on-the-road, ‘cheap’, mixers both have on their catalogue.
i would go for yamaha. cos i guess,
with mackie you have to pay lil bit more for the name, brand…,air
…also yamaha soundfork logo is neat.
