[sdiy] Alesis 1622 Mixer

[Rude 66]

ehm.. yeah. they're not quite as bad as 1622's but come close..;-)

seriously, i have a 2432, the old brown one, and there are several things
not working anymore.. they're not really that roadworthy. especially things
like the headphone jacks adnd some switches crap out after a while..
of course i've ranted about their eq's on analogue heaven and several dutch
lists before.. it's one of those mixers that makes real good analogue stuff
sound like it's cheap crap. i'm jus using mine as sort of a general purpose
mixer for turntables, radio, cd, etc. i'd never, ever put a synth through
it.
these days i'm taking mackie 1604's on the road. much more reliable and
better sounding too. i have that new onyx on test here for now, and that's
pretty good as well..
best live mixer i've used? solid as hell? those midas mixers. sweet
sounding, and built like a tank..but that's not behringer price range..;-)
