Which mixer with APC40+Axiom49+Live8

Post by donmansu » Wed Dec 15, 2010 11:28 am

Hello everyone first of all...just new in tghe forum and after years djing with Traktor i came to the point to start having fun producing.
I have already bought an APC40 and an Axiom 49 Keyboard and i gonna buy Live 8 .
My doubt is which mixer would suit best for this set up.
Of course i was pointing at a Xone:4d or a Korg Zero 8 but maybe i m ignoring some other good mixers which could do the job with less money.
Any suggestions would be really appreciated.
Thx to all

What you planning on doing witha mixer?

Answer that then maybe someone might suggest a mixer or audio interface that might suit you. Souds like you only need an audio interface unless you have another heap of junk to patch into it?

Doesnt sound like you need a zero 8 or xone? unless you planning on sending a load of audio ouot from live and mixing externally?
Only real reason to do that is if you have some hardware you want to patch in as well.
I have to confess, I do prefer running traktor and live through a physical mixer (I still let Live mix its own stuff internally though), but thats really due to also having some decks and other crap connected to the mixer as well.
Nothing to see here - move along!
