I like the hot pres in the Mackies, and if one comports themselves according
to the instructions in the manuals, taking that into account, they wont ever
be
tempted to push things over into clipping, yet theyll have a really hot crisp
signal. (smile)

I couldn't agree with you more Nick, I myself have a Mackie 1402VLZ and have
had the unit for about 10 years now, and it still
sounds as good as ever. I have looked at the bereingher stuff, and in my
opinion it doesn't compare to the Mackie line. For
one thing the bereingher distorts if your trim pots are set to high, while the
mackie sounds all around great. Again we all have
our own tastes I suppose.

According to service technicians in my area that's incorrect. The Behrenger
used considerably less robust hardware, and your claims for it are anecdotal in
terms of quality as contrasted with the Mackie, that's one reason for the price
differential.

hi guys.
ok here's a good one for you guys regarding mixers. now my experiences have
been both with mackie and behringer alongside
a few other manufacturers. the two I will mention are as follows
Behringer MX 9000 eurodesk.
Mackie 24/8 studio
both of the above desks are the same to a pedegree and are high quality 24
channel studio and live consoles. well suited for
recording 24 channels of audio. the mackie is more expensive though at S2500
ish and the behringer at S750 ish which
features the same high quality hardware. if you want full 24 channel recording
on your workstation PCs I'd say go behringer. I
have the MX9000 and love it.
if you want a good soundcard to support this desk I recommend I'd say a
terratec phase 88 card X 3 so you get 24 channels in
3 breakout cards. which of course can be user installed at the front of any
base unit which I have done with a few machines
and my personal studio.
hope all this helps. Personally I find the behringer out of the two is more
accessible
