Presonus Studio live 12 channel

[walker rosewood]

Anybody check this out yet? I've been using the 24.4.2 and the 16.4.2 for a while. This new one is 16.0.2. 8 mono xlr channels, and 4 stereo channels (xlr and two 1/4"). 4 aux sends, no subgroups, and the fat channel features reduced a bit. 3 band semi-parametric, one knob 'gate' (downward expander), hpf, and full comp. Still has the 2 fx buses.


I've been recommending the 16.4.2 to a lot of folks, especially bands who want to spend $6-800 on a powered mixer, just step up to the $2k and get all the processing.

This new one is perfect for those bands, and it's only $1300.

It's really not enough channels. And the 16.4.2 is out there for under $1,700. I'm really digging my 16.4.2. So much so that I believe I'm going to start shedding a bunch of my outboard gear. I really like not having to take a bunch of outboard compressors, EQ and effects to gigs. I will probably keep my dbx DR260 for speaker management and feedback.

I'd agree, for me there's no sense in not getting a 16.4.2 instead. I just think it will be a great option for those bands that currently use a 7 channel mackie powered mixer, 25 year old Peavey stuff, or are generally clueless. I think that's the intended market.
