I bought the mixer to be used with my live performance midi controlled synths and as a mixer for my in ear monitoring system. Very easy to operate, intuitive. In handling I gave 4 stars out of 5 because the fakers don't move in real time, there is a delay between the command and actual moving - not annoying, but noticeable - and the touch screen could have been more sensitive. Also I gave 4 stars to the sound because of the preamps - I wished to buy a more expensive one to have better preamps, but 5 times more expensive is not really justified in this moment. Overall I'm happy with it and it's features!
