File this under pleasant distraction...
So there was a very good B stock deal that popped up on a Model 16 last week, and thus now it has arrived at my home today and is sitting next to my Model 12.
Although I love my M12, I have been struggling with #channels for tracking my band live. The M16 “upgrade” is actually only +2 usable pre amp channels as far as I can tell, since Channel 13/14 is only for Bluetooth (or a phone or whatever the RCA jacks would be for...). But that +2 is enough to potentially let me set up our band with drum mics and vocals in better ways both for recording and (someday) live gigs. Also nice have 2 aux bus’s for fold backs channels without losing the Fx.
There are certainly some trade offs on features ..and of course I have been wondering about the impact on mixing in analog vs digital domain thing. So I am going to do some comparisons. So I have the two units side by side. I am thinking to do some comparison mixes if anyone is interested. Let me know your ideas for a test set up.
will sell of the two one eventually of course...
