Re: Yamaha MG10/2 Mixer

2004-01-02 by epilogue0282

MG10/2 = Get it. Immediately.

  Yes, Mackie makes decent mixers, but they are horrendously 
overpriced, thanks to the fact that they trade on their name almost 
as much as they trade on their products. I'd honestly only 
reccommend Mackie if you were in the market for a large format 
mixer. I've had my 10/2 for about 6 months and the noise/signal 
ratio is incredible, even sitting right next to my monitor. Also has 
2 onboard aux sends (one pre, one post), phantom power, headphone 
monitoring and so on. Add to that the fact that the four preamps are 
great, the little bugger is compact, and it's $200 less than the 
next comparable mixer.. it just wins on all fronts :). Awesome buy!

I'm not a pro at mixing so I purchased a small Behringer UB802 mixer 
to learn on.  Well, I'm tired of this peice of NOISY crap already.  
I can't figure out how to remove the noise/hiss from the recording 
using Sound Forge 6.0 so I figure I'll get another mixer but still 
not spend alot of money. I was told that the Yamaha MG10/2, while 
inexpensive, is pretty good and has very low noise/hiss. Does anyone 
have any experience with this mixer? I understand that Mackie makes 
really good mixers and the 1202VLZ for nearly $400 is on my list for 
future purchase but for now $100 is what I'd like to spend for 
purposes of learning a mixer.

I can't figure it out. I just use the presets right now.
