Feature:
For a small fry, it has plenty-0-features. This puppy makes a great home studio board.

Quality:
I have to give it a 10 due to it's price. You might expect a cheap board for the price. Not so. Good sturdy board.

Value:
Again, for the money, this is a GREAT value.

Desirability:
If you are looking for an inexpensive board for a home studio - You want this one... If you want something to gig with, you may want to consider alternatives, though this one would suffice.

Sound:
The effects sound pretty good for such a small inexpensive board.

Ease of Use:
It has a manual, well writen. Don't really need it though as this thing is cake to hookup and operate.

Support:
Wouldn't know.

Overall:
I think this board is soley designed for small home studios. If that's what you're in the market for, this is a great choice.

Feature:
I bought this mixer because it was the cheapest that offered inserts and had fx. Insert is insert and just works. FX I found worked rather subtly (perhaps too subtly sometimes)for vocals. With vocal echo effect, I couldn't do extreme stuff like cavern echoes but that probably is better in the sense that what effects you hear are mostly clean and not too gimmicky. I like the power cord set up with the regular plug at one end and the power adaptor "brick" somewhere in the middle.

Quality:
Mixer was surprisingly well built considering again that other reviewers gave this a 5. Fairly heavy and solid construction. Buttons look like they will last and connection points are heavy duty stuff.

Value:
I am very satisfied with this mixer. I have considered Mackie before buying this and for my minimal requirements, this serves me quite well.

Desirability:
I would like digital mixer but for this price I would buy this again.

Sound:
Not bad considering I had low expectations from seeing a "5" rating given to this mixer by previous reviewers. I am using this mostly for vocal mixing and for that purpose I am quite pleased with this. Voices come across with little coloration and I am not noticing any other peculiarities being added by the mixer. I am not overwhelmed with headroom of the mike section but it is enough for my purposes.

Support:
I have had this for about 2 months and didn't yet have any opportunity to call on support yet.

thought the FX were great, but I wasn't expecting them to be up to much in the first place. good control over the FX level overall. easy to get a nice vocal sound.

Quality:
solid as a rock, all round. get yourself a good case and it'll last forever i'm sure
