It`s a Mackie CFX 16, http://namm.harmony-central.com/WNAMM05 ... -mkII.html

Decent enough budget mixer.

Pretty much does what it says on the tin, nothing special.

Wish I had brought a larger mixer tbh, I've completely run out of inputs :(

Wouldnt mind a neb at a Mackie 8bus.

I have considered mixing completely "in the box" and getting a top flight interface and just bypass the need for an external mixer altogether but some time in the near future I would like to set-up some kind of live rig, so I might aswell get used to working completely "outside the box".

Plus it's just more fun that way for me :)

I use the Mackie dXb and to be honest, I don't like the scooped-out mids that they are famous for... it kinda puts you in a room that's really hard to get out of. That would be fine if every song was the same, but that ain't the way it works!
So, I had to go with outboard pre's and then move to the digital realm to keep that nice-n-tight MPC sound!
