t,
It is overkill, but I've never had success on any of my keyboards' mic feature, thus the mixer. I really don't touch the mixer EQ, because most things are really balanced. Additionally, I run all flat and use no additional keyboard effects.
My goal is to try the mic input on the 4X and eventually eliminate the mixer. But first, I have to map my 3X to the 4X - never ends.
