Soundcraft mixer

[ianjm]

Does anyone on here use or have any input on Soundcraft notepad 102 mixers.
Thinking of getting one but need advice.
It will be used mainly for jamming with a mate, 2mics, laptop with backers, br for recording us live using the line in, and going out to 2x180w active pa speakers


cheers

I've used a Soundcraft Spirit Folio throughout the nineties for all my home/session recordings. Great build quality, very low noise, super EQ.

They have nice 'British' pre-amps. I have a Folio and it's rather good, except I have lost one channel at the moment - must get round to fixing that - but I'd recommend SoundCraft any time. Good quality.

And having Phantom Power you can use good quality condenser mics such as those from AKG and Rode.

Cheers for the info. Just ordered one

Doesnt matter what kind of mic used it wont make us sound any better
