Its only used as a volume control any way, but its always good to be able to have a mic on a channel with ok control, also xbox has a channel, and i do have synths yes real ones and channels and faders are great, but money hmmm dictates perhaps something like a mackie big knob monitor controller with multi ins and outs, still not sure how a mic would work through that, dont wont to connect directly to my m audio fire wire 410 as its not right big heavy cable little silver box, would have to superglue interface to table to stop it moving plus i think quality via my desk was better than m audios preamps.
Or may be just a real tiny mackie mixer, iam getting great quality straight outa logic any way and into my lovely dynaudio BM6A'S.
Ho hum damn this game costs us money dont it, new mac mixer dies.

its just that ive heard once they start to go its a sign that other stuff will go as well maybe, where do u get mackie mixers serviced in England, its also one of those faults that sometimes dosent manifest for a few days.

yeah tuff call with the mackie cos things can cost more to fix that replace with a cheapie. There's places down here in London which'll diagnose (and fix if possible) for a minimum price, and if they need to spend more they tell you. Best case being they fix it, worst case being the minimum is wasted cos they cant fix it for that minimum but at least you know what the problem is & then have to decide whether to spend more and get it done.
i dunno. i got one of those cheap behringers which tbh is fine while not being anything special, but it never gets much use. things are just routed thru it and thats it
does it switch dud master l/r channel when u solo all the channel strips? if solo-ing isnt important, can u use a spare bus as the master l/r?

well if it's doing it on groups too it sounds bad. all ican suggest is contact mackie uk and see if they do a repair service, or seek out a local techie; but as u say, is it worth it?
if it's just for routing convenience, as i say those behringers are actualy ok. I'm not sure how much i'd trust one for hard commercial local pa work, but to sit in a studio not being used much they seem ok. eq is smooth and good, pre's are surprisingly good for such a cheapie
i'm talking about on the sx2442fx btw, but those same pre's and eq appear on many of their smaller boards - it's the Xenyx pre-amps

12 cores lol lets hope u can fill all slots
tbh i expect no decernable difference filling 4th slot, coz getting 3 more 2 gigs or 3 4 gig sticks costs money, spec the latter which is extortion,any how little rant over and y did u ask what mac i had, thank you
