They are a Spanish company. I did see a review online by an Australian dude who claimed they were Italian but he is wrong I am pretty sure my next mixer will be an Ecler.

Ecler is based in Barcelona, Spain.

I was actually there this January to visit their facilities....very nice! Barcelona is a great place. You know, they make practically EVERYTHING in house? Everything from the circuit boards, the metal chassis, even the foam packaging is made in house! Very cool.

Here's a rundown of all the mixer companies...where theyre based, and where theyre made:

Rane: Based in Seattle, USA, made in house

ECLER: Based in Barcelona, Spain, made in house

Pioneer: Based in Japan, made in Malaysia/China

Numark: Based in Rhode Island (I think?), made in China

Allen & Heath: Based in the UK, made in China now (most models)

Stanton: Based in Hollywood, Florida, made in China

Vestax: Based in Japan, made in China/Malaysia

Sorry Soundwerks this is my second post this evening getting picky at you... most A&H models are made in the UK. Don't know who told you otherwise, but they were wrong...

Posted by Zild on Sep-14-2005 20:27:

A&H make quite a few of their mixers in China now. That does not imply a drop in quality. Do a google search.

Which ones? Live sound or DJ?

Posted by Soundwerks on Sep-14-2005 20:47:

I beleive that many of the larger, live sound mixers are now made in China. Not sure about that, so you may correct me if I'm wrong.

Also, most of the DJ mixers are made in China as well (XONE:02/XONE:32/XONE:62). I actually have a XONE:62 sitting in front of me right now...the box says "Designed in the UK. Made in China"

The XONE:92 and XONE:3D, plus the V6/S6 are still made in the UK.

My vestax Pmc-cx has made in japan on it. Maybe the more expensive mixers from vestax are made in japan?

Posted by Soundwerks on Sep-15-2005 19:04:

most probably...I wasnt sure where Vestax is made because I see mixers that are made in China and made in Japan....

I was under the impression that they used to be made in Japan, and are now all made in China...but its possible that different models are made in different places.
