I currently have a compact Behringer Eurodesk mixer that I got about three years ago, it's served the purpose as an inexpensive interface to my PC, it was around $80 and offers 8 channels. I want to setup a small monitoring system for my Axe-Fx and I think I want to upgrade my mixer to something that offers better sound quality. Our band used to use a similar Behringer mixer and thought it sounded decent until it was replaced with a larger Yamaha mixer and we realized how much the Behringer was messing with our sound.
I don't need any onboard effects that some of the more intricate mixers offer nor does it need to be powered, I just want something with at least eight channels (with four XLRs if possible), a set of XLR outs for the mains to go to a set of active monitors (which I don't have yet, oddly enough as I try to move away from the Behringer mixer I have, I'm looking at the Behringer Truth monitors), headphone outs, recording outs, etc. I still plan on running the recording outs to my PC so I can record with Sonar.
What should I be looking at? Mackie, Yamaha? I really don' want to spend much more than $200-$250. MF has a Yamaha 12 channel mixer that goes for $239.00
