A sound engineer should have the same relationship with his console that a musician has with his instrument: they should both be intuitive and comfortable in any situation. This was a major design goal during the two-year development of Samson’s L2400 mixing console.

The stylish new desk gets its looks from the highly successful and popular MH3 and MH4 touring sound consoles, and includes a new frame, module ID graphics and end-cheeks, making the LX7ii not only easy to use but creating a system that will be the envy of professionals everywhere.

The new CFX.mkII Series mixers have been updated with more comfortable Onyx series knobs, new graphics for better visibility in less-than-ideal lighting conditions, and improved durability thanks to impact-resistant rubber side panels that have been added to the entire range. Best of all, the CFX.mkII mixers come at a price significantly lower than the original CFX series.

User Reviews:
Feature:
It has pretty much everything you need to get going. One thing I wished there was a mono out option for the mains.
Quality:
If you plan on taking it out for many gigs, then buy a hardshell case, but it’s pretty solid.
Value:
I bought mine new for 540. Guitar center matched a price i found online. I felt for that price it was a good deal.
Desirability:
It almost has everything i want in a mixer.
Sound:
Mackie mixers always sound great.
Ease of Use:
There are any tricks to it. It’s pretty standard, if
Support:
I’ve heard some horror stories about mackie support. I’ve never had to use them yet.
Overall:
If I had to get it again, i would probably get something a little smaller with mono outs, but i think it is a pretty good unit.

The ZED 4-Bus series takes inspiration from different product lines within the A&H range, combining them with fresh new ideas to give stunning results in a neat and easy to use package. The padless DuoPreTM mic/line pre-amplifier is the new design first implemented on the ZED-14 and delivers a high-headroom, low-noise signal. The 4 band, 2 sweep EQ, along with the low noise summing amps, is borrowed from the acclaimed GL2400, while the bus architecture is a simplified, but equally comprehensive, version of that employed in the successful GL series.
