Hi Fellas,
I have a Korg Kronos and Pa4x. I only use one at a time. I also have QSC KW122 speakers. I really get a very deep bass on both. I was going to replace the speakers but rethought that, and hoped a 3band Equalizer would be a cheaper and better option. This would be strictly for the keyboards not the vocals. Any mixers that you gentlemen have fallen in love with and would never give up?
Thanks Frank

Great little mixer with effects.
Donny recommended it. wink

I'll second Fran's recommendation! I have a M-10dx and it would do a great job. It is currently one of my back up mixers. 3-Band EQ is a must... just gives you more options to shape the sound for the room.

I also have a M-10dx which I don't use. Lots of bang-for-the-buck in terms of features but I found it almost TOO clean --- 'digital' or 'sterile' comes to mind. Doesn't have that nice 'analog' (warm) sound that I prefer. If you like pure crystalline sound with no 'color' added, this could work for you. JMO. Purely subjective.

Agreed!!
I love the allen-heath zediFX mixer I got from Frank a perfect workhorse for so many musical applications.
