Comments about PreSonus StudioLive 16.0.2 Performance & Recording Digital Mixer:
Really 16channels and can be controlled via ipad, iphone, ipod is amazing alone. Well worth the $ vs features/performance. We are using it for our outdoor plaza sound - which we can remote and change volume and sources at the speaker locations. Love it!
