Hi everyone.
I'm thinking of buying a bigger mixer, but something within budget (hence posting here).
Now, I've come across a few offers of second-hand mixers, among which the following:
- Roland M16E
- Soundcraft Folio SX
- Mackie 1604 VLZ Pro
Is there one you would suggest, or are the ones where you would tell me to forget about them?
Thanks in advance!

I own a mackie 1202, and this little guy is worth every penny I had paied for it. Also I own a soundcraft 200b the 24 track version. It has really cool british preamps. The soundcraft is of the 2 that I own is better, but It is in another league from the mackie I own, so it would be unfair to square them off not being in the same weight class. ya know what I meen? Hope you can gather anything useful from this post.
Okay, thank you for your responses. Now I have another query.

What is the best way to connect such mixers to computers?
I have a very simple soundcard with only a microphone port (Line In) and a speaker line (Out). Is that enough to connect to a mixer using a cable, or do I absolutely have to buy
- a new soundcard (must be iMac G3-compatible)
- an external firewire device (such as TerraTec's Aureon 7.1)
- …
?
Thanks again in advance for any help.

I have seen alot of good deals on used Mackie's (cheaper than buying one new).
