Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
it's a bit pricey when a 2-ch alesis 3630 is the same cost, but if the compact size is appealing, it's a winner.
Sound
Clean, accurate, transparent.
Features
easy to use, hard to mess up, but that's the benefit of not having much control. really wish it had a gate or expander.
Ease of Use
too easy, wish it had a setting for at least one user preset.
Quality
I really like this little comp.
Value
great for what it is. note, it's not a true 1/3U. It's too wide; 3 will not fit side-by-side in a tray.
The Wow Factor
pretty face, but analog meters are hard to read onstage.
