Any opinions or experiences would be greatly apprecriated. I'll try and audition as many as I can, but it aint gonna be easy given their costs. |
I just got the Mini Mixer about a week ago and the jury is still out for me and gain structure is an issue ( I'm getting a bit of distortion on some stuff) but the early impressions are that it is a winner, but it is big and fat....it tells the truth and I seem to need less stuff in my ref mixes ... (I will still go outside to an SSL for most of my master mixes on most stuff I like it on vocal ) the Chandler is a STRONG STRONG flavor though ....... I bought it after sticking my TG-2's on the mix bus and loving that BTW ... I also got it after owning a Mix Dream for quite sometime and finding that the difference it made was marginal at best... too clean I mean what the hell do we need a summer for if it's not going to colour the sound?
