Re: Bare bones midi mixer

Hi Paul,

"I bought the Ashley, but found it too colored, so I traded it in for the Mackie. The Mackie is (to my ears) much better than the Ashley, but it still alters the music too much for my taste."

The Mackie sounds less colored than a mixer that has no channel EQ, a unity gain input buffer, and all of four op-amps between input and output jacks? The Ashly is completely flat (+/- 0.2dB) from 20Hz to 20KHz, less than 0.02% THD from 20Hz- 20KHz at +20dBu, less than 0.01% SMPTE at +20dBu.
Perhaps your keyboards don't sound so good flat, and you are actually looking for the coloration you get from the Mackie?
Or is it possible you have some gain structure problems?

There are few mixers that come with fewer bells and whistles that cause coloration than the Ashly.

Good health, Weogo
