Great value for real-state, but a bit of noise issues

Lacrymology 03.05.2021

It's really hard to give a one-word evaluation of the sound because the internal sound quality is quite superb, it has great dynamic range without distortion, the effects are difficult to dial, but pretty great quality, and overall it behaves quite nicely. But

But it's really really sensitive to bad power. It may turn off on you if you use a lesser cable, and there's ground noise if your setup is kinda finicky. Right now I have a base noise that's quite noticeable if gain or volume are to high in some tracks or master, but it's quite manageable since you can get good quality sound with lower levels. I'm sure if I took the time to find what's the source of the noise issues I'd be able to clean it up.

One more issue is that the inputs are too close together, so you need good quality cables with small tips.

All things considered, it packs a lot in a very small package, and can handle from instrument to eurorack levels, so if desktop real state is an issue and you want flexibility, it's a good choice.

Superb piece of gear

Bartola Valves 01.03.2021

What you need to manage Eurorack-type signal levels and provide an excellent mixing and recording platform.

I'd have loved to have the splitting jack adaptors to be included.
You need to watch out for the type of cables you use as the jacks are very close to each other.

Amazing box, UX is not straghtforward

Artyom X 18.12.2021

I was dreaming of a little stereo-mixer for ages, even thought of creating something of my own. Now the problem's solved. Plenty of inputs and routing capabilities. Reverbs are cool. And they've added kind of a DAW/sequencer view — crazy!
Wish it could work at 96khz though.
What's weird is that to download a new firmware you have to create an account on their forum, hope they'll change that.

great digital mixer and recorder for mobile setup

saxash 26.06.2022

Had just one pretty bad issue with it, when using another power supply - the device froze after ~1h of being on and super loud noise was going from the main output. Make sure to use native power supply.
Using it for my live synth setup. Works great for mixing and recording. Love the cue pre-listen functionality. Also, good that it has compressor on master and delay/reverb sends per channel. Very compact form size.
