The 5032 has both mic and line ins (XLR). It was very nice for vocals (though I did not record vocals with my R84, just ac gtr). I did not try it on the mix bus as I have Millennia EQs I use there. Can't see why you couldn't use it on the mix, it's a first-class and sweet sounding EQ. Mine arrive early next week.
