If it's China then don't you think they are charging too much?

Hey Jim, do you have a link to any literature? It would be cool to read about what it actually is.

Looks like the sweetest Mackie I have ever seen!

Just kidding, more info please!!!

OK from what I can see in the picture it has a stereo cue send, a couple of mono aux sends, selectable input switching?, a master section with talkback, etc., and aux masters, in addition to the obvious eight faders and pans.

It might be a controler for the x rack 4 input, eq, and/or comp modules!

Looks interesting

Looks great Jim!

Does it use the same circuit as the X-rack summing?

Looks like the perfect solution for me to take on the road or use it as a highquality submixer for my synths with inserts( i assume it has)

I don't think they are going to tell us anything until Wednesday (but, it would be nice )... I heard there are "other new products" coming too.
