I bought this but decided to go digital. The effects sound great and controls are newbie-friendly.

The Mackie ProFX16v2 16-channel mixer boasts plenty of I/O, onboard effects and a USB interface to record your shows and practices -- all with Mackie's renowned durability and reliability. The ProFX16v2 gives you 10 of Mackie's low-noise Vita mic preamps, enough to mic the whole band with all of the drums and capture it all with great detail. Shape your sound on each channel with the 3-band EQ and onboard digital FX buss, giving you 16 studio-grade effects to choose from.
