Hi
I'm looking to get a mixer to connect to my new iMac 2013. I'd like to buy something below £500, ideally around £200-£300.
I'd like something with at least 8 inputs, but no more than 16, and have the ability to work with DAWs in the way a MIDI controller would. It would be a bonus if the sliders moved automatically. If it falls within my price range, Thunderbolt or USB 3.0 would be good, as there is no Firewire socket or USB 2.0 (I assume USB 2.0 would work but would be slow) on the latest iMac. I do have an adaptor though that can convert Firewire to Thunderbolt.
Please give me some advice about the best thing out there for these functions.
Thanks
Steve
