I plan on buying four arrangers (T2, Gensys Pro, PA1X Pro and G70), liked all their sounds n capabilities, thats why im buying all of them. My question is: what would be a good mixer (for both recording to PC & live gigs) & PA system for these? Thank you for your comments.

It is terrific you can afford all these keyboards and each one is a great keyboard, I can't see how you could possibly use all four except to play each one and decide which one you prefer?
I looks to me like on this forum the most popular 2 is the ty2 then the pax1 pro. You might want to go to a music store and demo each and pick one. I think you'll find the skill and tech needed to use these will keep you busy for a couple of years at least.
With the money you save buy a bose system for amplification. (don't know what kind of music you play or who you're playing to) the bose will handle most jobs and can be expanded for larger.....Total cost about $5,000.00 as opposted to $12,000.00
Hope this is of some help to you....pose

I must agree. I you are married to four beautiful, wonderful women, I don't see how you could do justice to any one of them. Although it might be great fun trying. DonM
With your obviously upscale budget , I would recommend a Yamaha EMX5016CF powered mixer, a pair of JBL SR4722X speakers and a powered sub (we use a Mackie SWA1501) for PA use, and a good pair of Studio monitors for home (Mackie HR824 are what I use).
That ought to do the job......!
My duo has been using the above PA for most of this year, and you would not believe how LOUD and clean we can get it! (Actually, we have the slightly earlier Yamaha model, the EMX5000-12, but the new one is even better!)

I use a Behringer MX1604A to mix my PSR3000, Roland VK7, SY85 and computer. It has a 3 band EQ and sliders for volume control on all channels. No noise. It has control room outputs for recording. Four mono and four stereo inputs. Smokey

Hard to beat Behringer when comparing price and features. I have two, a 1202FX and a 1222FX. No problems with either. Clean, good effects and very inexpensive. DonM
