One common thing I encounter while sifting through tutorials is "play through the mixer." So I started exploring what mixers are out there and stumbled on something kinda unrelated, but still cool.

Zoom L6max is a mixer, multi-channel audio interface, and multi-channel 32-bit recorder. It costs like $400.

It has 3-band EQ (with parametric mid) on every channel, built-in recording, 2 headphones outputs, and an external effects send/return.

A lot of quality-of-life features that are present on expensive gear, but at a budget price. It's also compact and could be battery-powered.

I don't really know what I want to ask, but isn't it cool? Thoughts?

context: just a noob, my current setup looks like this.

First setup. Spent couple of month googling and reading manuals. Ended up with this.

My priorities are: stems, modularity, portability.

Faders are mapped to stem's volumes. "Master" fader works as cross-fader. Deck's volume is controlled by combination of a knob and "mute" button.

Djay Pro, iPad 11", Akai MidiMix, Zoom AMS-24.

It should be turned on by default. Make people find how to disable it, not how to enable it or if it even exists.

I mean, come on, guys. You won this one. We applaud you. Take a bow.
