best basic 19" mixer for the price

fatcatdj from los angeles, califiornia

I had a scratch mixer and I accidentally spilled beer on it one night. It was a [$] one and I didnt want to spent [$] plus tax again so I bought this American Audio 19" Q2422. Its a throwback of the 80's when Numark used to make great 19" mixers because this one is just like those old Numarks. Its solid, sounds great and has alot of features for a 3 channel mixer. What I like is the BNC light socket which my scratch mixer didnt have, a iPod AUX plug in on the face of the mixer, 2 mic inputs, 2 gains one on the face and another on the back panel which really brings up the volume even more so than other mixers.

The line faders are not as tight as with other mixers. The Q-2422 has plenty of inputs as well as an MP3 input ready to be used. Also included is a BNC socket for a gooseneck light. The 3 band EQ adds that extra sizzle and control over your sound. The zone output is great especially if you are using a subwoofer or a pair of monitors. This mixer gives the Behringer VMX-1000 and the Vestax DSM-360 a run for their money. I owned both of these mixers and while they looked great, they were a big disappointment. I am glad I chose the Q-2422 over these other ones. By the way, the headphone output is very loud. Great when mixing at a noisy nightclub o … Read more
