Title: ok board, lousy pre-amps
Product review: I was trying to use this as a portable board, but the pre-amps are less than to be desired. I had to crank them all the way up just to get a usable level, and they have a weird gain jump at the end of their range, makes it very hard to set your levels. The in and out of the computer was good, just be aware that only the gain changes the level going in to the computer, and the channels are always sent to the computer no matter the settings of the board. It says 10 in and I guess that is technically true, but two of your ins are just the stereo main mix. It also has 10 channels out just know that 2 of these channels are dedicated to either the headphone or monitor output. It is nice that you can route back 8 channels to the board and use them in the mix as well, and you still get your inputs to the computer. Over all if you where using this in a studio with some pre-amps in front of the board. I think it would be ok.
