can also use a mixer 4 live mixing performing... eventually u might want 2 do so... U will eventually want some outboard gear... also having a mixer can take so of the preassure out of yer CPU!!
Behringer is cheap... some mixers are OK others are absolute cr**.. I had a 2442 and it was a piece of sh***
the higher ones are good... and some of the small models add a nice touch on the sound...
Just make sure u try different brands ...
My advise Mackie, Spirit, Allen & heath...
I just love the sound of the "spirit mixers" especially if u overdrive a channel (excessive use of gain... this makes the nicest Kicks, Snares, Claps.. and distorted rides)..
