    Mixer Question

    Anybody have experience with the Behringer 1602A? It looks like an interesting mixer but I haven't heard too much about it. Is it comparable to the Mackie 1202VLZ? Any comments on the unit would be appreciated.

    Opinions on Shure KSM 32

    I have been told by a dealer for both Shure and Neumann that the Shure KSM 32 is very comparable to the TLM 103 and he highly recommended it for my purpose of strictly voiceover work. Any opinions or known comparisons between the KSM 32 and the likes of TLM 103 or AT 4033?

    3630 or Nano?

    I'm in need of a compressor strictly for voiceover work. I've heard good things about the 3630 but don't know anybody who has used the Nano Compressor. Will the Nano be sufficient for V/O's?
