"Definately the most bang for your buck!!!"
Sound: The sound is ridiculous!!! Before buying the 802-VLZ3 I was only using a M-Audio 610 interface for my mics and line-ins. Don't get me wrong, the M-Audio pre's are nice and have great sound, but the pre's on the Mackie 802-VLZ3 are HUGE!!! Big sound, lots of headroom, and so sensitive when it comes to mics. I was doing a mic check the other day and faintly heard a train wistle 2 miles away(impressive)! Feature: This compact mixer has everthing the big boys have. Its has too many features and ways to route the sound than I have time to write this review. Ease of Use: If you have used sound mixers before, you wont have any trouble. If your like me and have piddled with mixers- you'll have to navigate a little and then it becomes old hat. Quality: It would take a Tamahawk missle to penetrate the solid construction of this mixer. Value: Great value! Manufacturer Support: Haven't had to use support but, have heard from friends in the industry that it isn't Mackie's strong point. The Wow Factor: For a mixer, it has a look and feel that showboats over others. Overall: I'm sure I'll have this little gem till the day I open a professional studio and will have to upgrade to a much bigger console. Untill then, its hear to stay!

"An Excellent, Reliable, and Great Sounding Mixer!"
Sound: This is a very clean sounding mixer with minimal hum. I use it in live sound and it sounds better than our main mixer! Feature: This is quite a feature-packed console! It's very flexible in many conditions such as sending multiple channels other than the two main outs. Ease of Use: Everything is simple and straight forward. The manual is a bit confusing, but the actual product is simple and great! Quality: Mackie really shines with quality here. Immediately after taking it out of the box, I notice how SOLID the mixer felt. The awesome sound quality and durability helped reinforce my respect for Mackie. This mixer has been through a lot in this past year and it has held up flawlessly. Value: With the quality and flexibility in mind, this is an excellent value! Manufacturer Support: Haven't had to use support, but my friend says they are helpful. The Wow Factor: All metal design with VLZ preamps...WHY NOT?! Overall: Overall, this mixer will do best in any situation where a small mixing console is needed. Whether it be recording or being thrown into a bin for live sound, this Mackie will do the trick!!
