Title: Mackie 1202-VLZ3 user review Post by: elwoodblues1969 on August 07, 2008, 05:12:37 AM Came into some unexpected green-via the mail,so I made a mad dash to the nearest SamAsh store & got a decent trade-in price with the Peavey, towards the Mackie mixer.
As it turned out,SamAsh had the very mixer I was looking for-used,and the mixer was in pristine condition,so I took Oren's advice & went used. ;) Got it for $200 bucks and man,what an incredible bargain! :-The moment I embraced this wonderful mixer and reveled in the solid weight of it,I knew I scored big with this product! When I got this baby home,I immediately fell in love with the incredible tactile aspect of this unit...all the knobs were smooth & firm...the smooth intercourse of the 1/4" plugs sliding into the jacks brought me to rapture. The routing capablities & the sheer number of inputs & outputs on this beast-including the 4 pairs of stereo inputs clearly revealed to me that this is the only mixer I will ever need,as it will accomodate any additions I choose to incorporate into my studio in the future. The diagrams in the manual clearly & concisely,illustrated various configurations and connecting my effects processor to the mixer was seamless. :D Mackie has a impressive reputation for clean,innovative and solidly built mixers and the VLZ series certainly lives up to the propaganda. My studio is officially complete now,& the future purchase of a Kurzweil PC3 will be the icing on the cake of my studio. :; Title: Re: Mackie 1202-VLZ3 user review Post by: rharv on August 07, 2008, 10:50:35 AM Cool, glad it worked out for you.
