(More customer reviews)I was looking for a large enough mixer to run a 5 piece band, not powered, with effects, and a sleek user interface. This was it! It takes up quite a few rack spaces (12u) which makes it hard to find a rack or tilt top for it, but I got the SKB Mighty Gig Rig with 14U top 6U Front Rack. This left enough room for cables and everything, and was a perfect solution for an all-in-one unit instead of having a separate mixer case. The only issue I had was that when I looked at the manual, the aux ports on the back in the manual that I was building the rack around were for the 206 ONLY, not this unit. This would have given me the chance to run some other filters, feedback eliminator, and some other things back into the unit aux inputs without taking up another input. This was NOT worth another 250 bucks for the 206 model, so while a disappointment, not a deal breaker, just be aware that panel does not exist on this mixer, double check the diagrams on the manual to make sure you have the ports you want/need.Also be aware if your unit is shipping from "Pro Acoustics". They shipped mine, and it was a 7 working day delay before shipping. When it did ship, they sent it in the shelf box ONLY (no outer box or padding) and the box was jacked up and the Styrofoam was broken up (either through Fed-Ex or them). The factory seal was also broken and the unit re-taped shut. Their excuse was "added tape" (Which was a lie), my response "Add a box!!" Either way, this was a distributor issue, not the product, that's why I didn't down-rate for this, but you deserve to be made aware. If it does ship from them "Pro Acoustics", I would call in advance and demand that they properly package your order since they'll be waiting to ship your order for a week anyway, they should have plenty of time!
