Line 6 StageScape M20d

The Line 6 StageScape M20d is nothing short of spectacular (if you can afford it). This digital mixer will allow you to connect an iPad through WiFi connection to take full control over this mixer from anywhere in the area. This mixer has over a 100 different processors built into it that are truly amazing. The M20d has 16 channels and 12 microphone preamps. There are 4 line in inputs and 2 digital outs with a headphone jack. While using this mixer you can record up to 16 channels simultaneously and get a great sound every single time you use it.

UTILIZATION

This unit is not easy to operate; it will take some time before you can understand how to fully operate it even with the manual. But once you get over the learning curve you will be able to do some really cool stuff with this mixer. This unit is also very portable because it is light and well made. There are some effects on the M20d as well.

SOUNDS

All of the effects and filters are very good, they will suit whatever style of music you create. The manual is very clear and easy to use, but it is pretty extensive and will take time to read through. I do not recommend reading straight through it. I feel it would be better just to look things up as you go and need to understand something.

OVERALL OPINION

The only downfall of this mixer is that it is so expensive, and when you first look at it you will not think that it will be worth that much money. But it truly is, I suggest that you go to a store where you can try it out before you invest in it because it is not for everyone. Most DJ’s and producers do not need this many options. This is the first unit like this that I have ever tried and it was by far the best. This is a must have and anyone who can afford it should buy it without a doubt.

I just used the Line 6 StageScape M20D for the first time last week, and it has some really amazing features. The interface of this system is truly one of a kind and unique. On the back of the unit are where all of the ins and outs are but by looking at the front of the unit it was hard to tell that it was even an interface. It has a total of 20 different inputs with 12 of them being combo jack mic line ins.

UTILIZATION

It took me a few minutes to understand working with the M20D. Last week I was in charge of setting up a small show for a local band that I work with and they owned this. They didn’t even know how to use it so I basically had to figure it out on the fly and I did it easy without the manual because they didn’t have it with them (though it does come with one).

SOUNDS

The effects where perfect, I didn’t expect to get multiband compressors, gates, and limiters right on the M20D. While using this unit I was also able to record the full show in WAV format to a USB drive to put it into my DAW later on because they are working on a live album as well.

OVERALL OPINION

I basically had the M20D in my hands for most of the rehearsal just messing with options trying to get a better feel for how it worked and I was able to really edit some things like the kick drum. I was able to add some punch and compression to the kick drum right from the M20D. This unit was truly a gift to work with and I will be purchasing one of my own soon too. For any group that performs live or at least practice a lot together, this is an immediate must have. You will be in awe on what can be done by this little interface.

OVERALL OPINION

Hello there,

I use this table to mix my set times (www.morellipierre.fr)
1 - PlayBack low battery
2 - acousite or Electric Guitar
3 - singing.

I did not want to waste time technical considerations, preferring to devote myself to musique.Ce product perfectly meets my expectations.
The sound reproduction is (for me) excellent. when I play well ...

The price / quality ratio is that there are better now.

See other reviews ...

UTILIZATION

I used the both for a rock band for a DJ or theatrical performances. The anti feedback effects, the auto trim, visualization tools all give a peace of use because even my 4 year old son succeeded (although I teach him) to be the sound of my guitar in pregnant ... Management the back is also very simple and well thought out

SOUNDS

I thought that with my Soundcraft table, I finally had a very good sound (much warmer than behringer. Well I do not know that Line 6 Very reluctant at first, I have been seduced by these characteristics and I have finally found a good opportunity ... Well my sound has changed a lot ... Much better actually when you think about it on an analog table there are three sound adjustment without being able to change the frequency. Well it is a very fine adjustment . an analog table, one that has only one effect for all tracks, then we can choose 4 effects for all tracks. Convenient when you do not want to put that reverb on the tracks but also delay or Again c ... chorus is great. There is also for those like me who have trouble knowing what to compression or what frequency change. You close your eyes and ride his finger that screen and listen to the sound that we try ... It's all finished the headache trying to tweak the sound.

OVERALL OPINION

I used the last four months and I have yet to discover things including the recording. Frankly I have only fear is that I can have more if another mine just to fail ...
