Those are Typhoon Electronics (Japanese). Came in at $500 Can.
As you well know, you can spend anywhere up to $3500 - $5000 or more for a Roland or Yamaha kit, but let's be honest....how many kits do you need???
The Typhoons have 20 pre-sets and allow you to build 10. Hell...I can get by with 2 or 3 variations. I don't need the capability of 500 kits, like some of these things offer.

Basically Nigel, everything goes hard in to the D3200. I've put together a 12 buss snake for mics and 1/4". I'll post a pic for you in a few days.

I can then run out, by way of either the Pioneer, to 2 small monitors, or to my Yam EMX5000 which runs out to (2) Peavet KB100's.

I'll be replacing my existing Console monitors (reeeelly old twin Boston Acoustics) with 2 Behringer MS16's within the next few days.

Business is good...and keeping me quite busy obviously.

Good talkin' to ya again Nigel.

That's nice looking setup and for sure the snake you've made up is the only way to go with that many inputs.

So how are those MS16 monitors working out? What are you using the B2 for instuments, vocals or both? Behringer really do provide awesome value.

Thanx Nigel....
I'm using the B2 primarily for vocals, although I have experimented with micing an acoustic guitar, I just prefer the sound I get from my EV457 for that. It's warm and picks up the bottom end really nicely...but again....I'm still experimenting.
I've now got all the wiring and cables hidden, and I'll be re-routing the snake through a port in the back of the console, so I won't have this monster hanging out in front.(sounds like something my ex-wife said to me)
