I'm looking into getting a line mixer that I can rack mount below my workstation desk. I will only be used as a monitor mixer and an input signal router into two ART Pro Channels into a MOTU 828mkII. The mixing is all done internally with CueMix console and the MOTU's inputs acting as an aux patchbay so mic preamps and EQs are not an issue.
I am thinking of getting one of these as our new state of the art location line mixer.

Hello,
I found a Roland M160 Line Mixer on Ebay at a decent price. I cannot find any literature on the product. Has anyone used this mixer that can give me some feedback on it. I would be using it mainly for keyboard i/p's.

I have a Mackie D8B and a huge synth/sampler setup and along with returning effects and compressors I am totally out of inputs. The D8B gives me 48 ins but the instruments are all stereo so I'm maxed out. I need to find a very high quality line mixer that I can use to bring things back into the board. I don't want it to take up too many rack spaces. Somewhere between 1 and 4 would be cool.
Still searching for the affordable durable quality mixer setup, needs to be muy portable. I need good quality mic preamps, which may not come with a mixer meeting the other criteria, so I'm looking at line mixers. The Speck looks like a class act, but way too many little awkward concentric knobs and cramped controls. Amazing routing possibilities.
Like most of us here I have been building my gear arsinal for some time. I now have a really fine collection of mics, preamps, compressors, equalization, and a/d/a conversion. So the time has come to get rid of the weakest link in the chain, that wink leak being the mixing console.
