And the Yamaha mg 102 http://www.thomann.de/nl/yamaha_mg_102_c.htm ?
And what about the combination with a audiophile
24/96 pci and a little
mackie mixer like this one? http://www.thomann.de/nl/mackie_402_vlz3.htm
How does this compare to for example a delta 1010lt or a firewire interface?
If all you want is 2 in and out with mic pres, I would say that is a
fair way to go.
If you buy this mixer, you may find yourself wanting a slightly better
on though. If you use the mixer strictly for mic pre-amps, then it is
fine.
If you are willing to consider Behringer brand (some people hate them),
you could get a bit more mixer for a bit less money from that web wite
with the XENYX 802. The Soundcraft Classic 4 also looks better, and
that is a great brand. I haven't used either of these specific mixers
though.
Personally, I have an 10 channel Yamaha unit, which is about $20 more
than the Mackie you mention, but I believe that mine has been
discontinued. I would have gone for the Behringer, but I put off buying
anything until I needed it the next day and the Yamaha was what I could
find locally.
