Mackie 1202 VLZ4

Despite the small footprint this is a very good analogue mixer with great audio quality and many routing options.

I use it as a submixer to send to effects and I use the aux outs and the alt out to record separate tracks of my submix. The pre-amps are fine and the headroom is more than enough. Build quality is very good as all Mackie products.
I believe the price is very reasonable for what it has to offer.

Very portable and convenient this little mixer will save you on many occasions.

Good small mixer. Easy to set up. Don't use it for mic inputs, but they are probably fine. Quite low noise.
There are few things about it that are weird:
Only Aux 1 return accepts mono, but there's written mono/stereo on both returns.
Another thing is that it's not possible to listen main mix with headphones - only pre fader audio.
Those limitations are not that important to miss.
