I need a small mixer (no need for more than 4 channels) that can run in stereo and has effects. I’ll be using 2 Bose Compacts. I remember the Edirol M-10DX got good reviews around here, but that mixer seems to have been discontinued.

I use these for small events

or with FX:

Both Behringer and Alesis make inexpensive mixers that will fit your needs. I used the Alesis 6FX and it did a great job. The new 8 channel is a fantastic bargain.

Hope this helps,

Best Mixer I ever used so far...

Donny, it's twice the price and IMO, doesn't sound as good as the Alesis.

Gary ...I love ya but I disagree.....,and besides it's what goes thru the mixer that sounds good .... most people don't understand it or even know how to set it up correctly... it really doesn so much more then any mixer I ever used on stage..
Fran taught me and we both & other players we know have had nothing but brilliant results using the Edirol M10dx.

I use the Behringer 1002 as well - great unit. it has never let me down, its powered for many hours a day in and out of the studio.

Its so light!

The ONLY drawback is that it doesn't have a Power on/off switch on the unit itself.

I also agree the Edirol M-10DX mixer is the best mixer I have used....and I have used a lot of mixers including the same Alesis Gary uses...I also used the Mackie CFX12...both the Alesis and Mackie served me well...but the Edirol surpassed both for me..Te RAC alone made the change worth while..

I think you can still find the M-10DX for around $250...The deals for under $150 were the bargain of our time..

Look in the future..the Edirol label will be replaced by Roland's Cakewalk division..It already has...

Forgot to mention..the vast number of mixer users...do not use them properly...just about every stage set up I see...do it wrong..then complain abour noise and feedback...

I used the Edirol M-10DX and thought it was great (still have it along with a mackie) ... until I used the Bose T-1. I use condenser mics and they are noisy through the M-10X.

I had an Alesis exactly like Gary's. After a couple of years it bit the dust and I wanted something a little more robust.

For about $150 this Yamaha was my choice. Great EQ and FX and plenty of inputs. Love it.
