The guys I'm working with now are looking for a powered mixer for smaller gigs. Curious to know what recommendations you guys would have. |

With a powered sub, we play small to mid sized venues and outdoor shows. 800w mains, @800w into 3 monitors, + 700w sub. We usually run 4 vox, guitar, bass, drums OH and Kick. (8 channels)
Yorkville also makes one that's 400w/side, the M810.
The Mackie is also a great choice - go with the larger one though (808) ~ Mono or stereo doesn't really matter, if you're using one side for mains and one for mon.
I've also heard good things about the Yamaha series, though I haven't used them. |

Powered mixers tend to be full of compromises and there has been a substantial leap forward in the quality of powered speakers recently. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
