US-16x08 : Works pretty well

I have been using this for years, only had some problems with the switch on/off button that sometimes just doesn't work, but always self-fixes within few minutes. Preamps work pretty well at low-mid gain, not so satisfying for hi-gain but overall still very good. MIDI works great both in and out. I wish there where more routing possibilities, but the signal path of the digital mixer is not customisable. It's kind of a big device, but I suppose it's the minimum for 16 in and 8 out ports. It fits perfectly both in the rack mount and "stand-alone", it works as pre-bank with no usb connection and as digital mixer with usb and remote monitor (pc or mac). Never regret buying this, never had the necessity to buy a different one (though I'm not a professional sound engineer). Totally worth the price!
