Clean, clear, noiseless. Reviewer who said that the sound is too clean, is tally clueless and probably works for a competitor. How can a sound be to clean when we all strive to have no noise. This think is awesome and I se it for live shows all the time driving 4 mics keyboard and digital drum-kit

Would have been nice to have a wider range EQ to better deal with feedback. Effects are clean and good enough for indoor and outdoor gigs. Subgroups are great because you can pipe mics to a separate amp and a separate set of speakers if you wanted to. The built-in crossover is great and allows you to run your subwoofers without adding a separate crossover.

Fairly simple, but if you never used pro-mixers and subgroups, the manual will be your friend - well written.

I have it installed in a rack and have been using it for over 3 years - Solid as a rock and it bounces all over my truck every week on the way to and from the gig.

Nothing comes close to this price and features.

never needed

Light, looks good and clean. Sliders are tight - really nice mixer

Blues, classic rock, pop

The sound of this mixer, yes, it sounds, it sounds crystal clear, a bit too clear for my liking.I would prefer a somehow more natural, more realistic sound. A Behringer desk sounds crystal clear too, but I guess the Mackie is just a little bit better build than any Behringer. If you want a good sound, get a Allan & Heath, a Yamaha or a Soundcraft desk. Yes, Mackie mixer are hyped in a big way, but why ?

Its crazy that you have to use sub mixes to get to the main-outs. No other brand offers this kind of madness.Other than that, this mixer has more or less the same features as any mixing desk,

Well, if you don't mind that its not too easy to get a good sound via Mackies EQ's,if you don´t mind that you have to use the sub mix faders to get to the L and R main outs, then I think this desk is fairly easy to use,... as any

I have heard that often on Mackie desks channels start to fail, could it be that Mackie and Behringer are about the same quality with the Mackie being just a fraction better, I think - Yes

Value... for the same money you can get a Yamaha or Soundcraft desk, this I would call value.

I do not know, but heard good about their support.

If I want a Mackie desk, Well, if I would have the choice between a Behringer and a Mackie, I probably would choose the Mackie. But if I could choose freely, I would not wan't either of them.

It's a Mackie

Needs more attention paid to monitors. You have to use an aux channel out to power monitors with ONLY gain. No eq. You need another mixer? Otherwise, cool.

Decent

Being able to manage a small club house and monitors is essential. I find the monitor support lacking, huge.

Haven't had to deal with.

It's not a bad mixer. The effects are good for what you would expect. There is just no monitor support.

Clean, clear, quiet. Effects sound nice and nnot muddy

I wish it had wider EQ range

NO magic needed

Rock solid, I have been using it for over 2 years now and never had issues

Price could be about $100 lower for what it is

Never needed it

Solid, clear awesome. Yamaha has nothing on Mackie
