yeah, it looks nice. but, what a dumb place to put the headphone jack. it would be hanging right over the meter lights, unless you put the EQ module on top (which would make sense i guess)

I like the rotary controls, that's cool. but, this mixer has no gains, that's kinda dumb.

I think they couldve done a better design don't you think?

but i dnt really care about looks as long as it's quality and like JohnSmith said : "Where are the gain buttons?"

maybe it's on the front/back ?

i have no idea but im just taking a punt
rotary mixers wouldn't need gains? because its like mixing just purely with gains anyway...?

well, then why not just crank your levels up, and use the gains, voila, you have a rotary mixer!

i've actually done this, it works good, i find i can be smoother with the levels on a knob than a slider.

only problem is, if the gain is down, you can't hear it in the headphones.

also, i use the gain to make it so that when the level is at the top, the track is just about distorting but not quite. with only the gain, you don't have this ability.
