"Great right out of the box"
Verified Customer
zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
On the strength of our past experience with QSC we purchased two of these mixers. I pulled the first one out of the box and mixed a live show. All I can say is wow. It took me a couple of minutes to get the mixer to tether to the I pad (my fault) but after I did I was impressed We own a sound company www.thesoundmanonline.com so we mix on a lot of different formats. This is now my go to mixer.
Sound
Very clear the microphone pre amps are transparent. The recording quality is also very clear.
Features
The I pad app is the best of any on the market. Navigation of the mixer is intuitive and is without excessive layers. Recording is easy and is straight ahead. Great sound quality
Ease of Use
One of the easiest mixers I have ever worked with out of the box. If your afraid to go digital don't hesitate its the bomb. The online tutorials, videos and the instructions built into the mixer make the process seamless
Quality
Sturdy build quality and it comes in its own case.
Value
Great price for a great mixer.
Manufacturer Support
We own lots of QSC equipment they are exceptional about being available for our questions.
The Wow Factor
Its as close to a ten as possible. Its the Salma Hayak of mixers
Musical Background:
Singer and owner of www.thesoundmanonline.com pro sound company
Musical Style:
we mix and play everything we dj announce all different types of events
