Well the biggest is the ''flying faders'' and then the recalling and then the ''feel'' to
the desk(s) .... There's a lot better around but then there is A LOT worst
around for MORE money :?

Now that's a Bargain, nice one! My fave is an APB ProRack House mixer. it's the dog's bollox. And as a piece of rack
gear, it's bloomin amazing.

Picked up that final IPR1600:  Now my ATA case for my StudioLive 24.4.2 has
arrived!! Brutal soft case while I found the right ATA case. Better than
nothing, but not much.  New case!

I have heard some very nice things about the APB mixers, and considering it is the same
engineers responsible for the HP8 etc. from Crest I am not to surprised.

interesting. One of the best sounding mixer/eq I ever used (with a good PA, mind) was a
Crest a few years ago now, in Waterford. Or was it Cork? Too many years ....

There's a lot
better around for the same money as the Presonus: tell us all then, I couldn't see
anything that comes close nevermind being better.

Not the best bit of kit but really useful - I just bought a sound level meter, so I can
see exactly how loud each band member is during sound check and how loud the set is.
I recorded 114 db at one point!
The biggest benifit is showing band
members that despite their claims they are too quiet, they are actually much louder than
everyone else.
