[cma-l] Mixers

["Paul Scarth"]

Hi Clive,

I can only speak from personal experience, but I'd consider looking at the
different ranges of Sonifex mixers and see how they fit within your budget.
The S2 is the dogs dangly bits in terms of flexability and reliability but
the compact, less expensive, S0 also provides pretty much all you need in a
non-upgradable package.

Speaking from experience the Sonifex mixers provide the best solution to
teach from too. :)
