Depends which one. Avoid Alesis. The Behringer ones are normally OK, especially the composer pros which are excellent. Phildo

Is it the Ultracom 2400 'pro' 2 channel unit. Sounded OK to me. Did the job and was easy to use. You need to know about how to properly use a compressor though, that's the real one. Graham |
