X Air XR16 : One box soloution

I purchased this mixer as a one box soloution to my needs as a keyboard player doing a variety of gigs. Because it is so easy to reconfigure i can quickly load a setup to use it as a di box with monitor returns to in ear monitors or a band pa desk or personal PA system. It serves my needs from small venues to festivals. The build quality is robust and the audio fidelity is very good. The control software has some inconsistency across platforms and doesn't have a sensible set of default values. This can be troublesome in a gig situation if you need to swap platforms during a gig.(the tablet battery went flat on a gig and i had to use ipad to mix the remaining 30 mins of gig.) All things considered this is a very good quality desk with a small footprint and maximum flexibility. highly recommended.
