I'm in the market for a mixer for my home studio. I will also be using it for mixing small live shows, but my main focus is recording. I need at least 16 channels. Mackie has the workhors VLZ PRO series, as well as the new ONYX line. Allen and Heath have the MixWizards, and Soundcraft has some reasonably priced mixers as well. Can anybody give me opinions on the sound quality of the pre's and EQ's?
All of the mixers I just named can be had for right at or under 1,000 depending if you can get them on EBAY or not. My limit is 1,500. Is there anything out there that would justify the extra 500? I have a bank loan that will be paid off in a little over a year. Once that is done I intend to take out another to overhaul my studio. I'm thinking of going with the Control 24 and a small HD setup.
What does everyone think about the Soundcraft Ghost? I've seen it on EBAY for about 2G's. Any suggestions and input would be greatly appreciated.
