    With its sleek new look, upgraded preamps and EQ circuitry, the new Mackie 1642-VLZ3 redefines perfection. With the same features and functionality of its predecessor, the re-engineered Mackie 1642-VLZ3 has even greater headroom than the original. Mackie could have stopped right then and there, but since were obsessed with perfection, Mackie redesigned the Mix Bus and made significant enhancements to the EQs, giving the 1642-VLZ3 a more intuitive and musical feel.

Feature:
It does what it says on the tin. Having utility compression on input is useful. And did I mention the great signal routing path? The stereo line ins (9/10 and 11/12) dont have mid Eq, only top and bottom.

Quality:
Seems solid. Unfortunately, the default Windows USB audio device driver doesnt work with this device; sound comes out totally garbled.

Value:
Get the MW12C. The effects are not worth the $30 extra.

Desirability:
Its OK.

Sound:
Theres a bit of noise, but not too terrible. The signal routing is great for this price class, with two independent stereo buses plus the USB I/O. The effects, however, arent really useful. They sound like a hold-over from the first cheap digital effect boxes from 1985. I much prefer the effects in VST.

Ease of Use:
Really nothing to complain about. Some of the buttons are a little hard to tell whether theyre in or out.

Support:
I tried getting a fix for the USB audio device problem on the web site, but they only have an update for ASIO/KS.

Overall:
I got this because it was the cheapest mixer I could get with two independent busses and reasonable Mic pres. It does just fine for that.

Feature:
Again its real nice for the price. There are some options that usually arent in a board at this price point.

Quality:
Good quality for the most part. Sliders have a little bit of a cheaper feel to them, but not bad. Wish sliders had rubber sheild in the slots but hey, cant have everything.

Value:
For the price you cant beat it! I know you can spend more on whatever brand you happen to be married to, but if you want a 32 channel mixer in this price range, this is the one for you.

Desirability:
32 channels with effects...more money in my pocket...now I can take the wife out on the town and have my toys too. Life is good.

Sound:
For the price its very strong although Id like it to have a little more punch. (but that could be due to my ancient speakers) It has so much more control than my previous board its unreal.

Ease of Use:
Pretty straight foreward.

Support:
Havent used it yet, but have dealt with them in the past.

Overall:
If you are on a budget and need a larger board, youd be hard pressed not to get this. It does have some small "plastic" issues, but if you take care of it, it will take care of you.
