Hi guys

For small analogue mixers, I'd go with a Yamaha before a Behringer.

What size are you after and whats your budget?

And what's your function? Live sound? Are you recording and summing in analog? What are you planning on doing with the board?

And for big analogue consoles, I'd go with Midas before any other.

I've used a Midas Venice 320 for live sound for the last 9 years. Sounds great, fits in the truck and built like a tank.

my budget is around 60-75 GBP i will use it mainly for live sound a little bit of recording & its only home use so probably a small one would do

How many inputs are required? Does it need to have phantom power?

Mixers are of limited use in home recording, depending upon what you're doing, number of channels etc..

Don't make us drag it out of you like this curious.... more info - what are you trying to achieve?
