Question: mixer/mic preamp/headphone out

[mk7169]

hi all

not sure if this is the correct place to post about this, but ill give it a try.

 

im looking for recommendations if there is a product that can suit my needs.

 

what i need is a compact multi-channel mixer, preferably 8 channels. i need this mixer to have a descent mic preamp so i can run my shure sm56/57 with a nice sound for live applications. also, id like to have a headphones out and be able to click each mixer channel to output into the headphones instead of to the mix, so i can listen to a channel in my headphones before adding it to the live mix. it should be able to play some channels out to the mix and play whichever channels out to my headphones.

 

please let me know if theres something out there thats compact and what you recommend for me.

 

thanks in advance!

if you can, i dont check this forum too often, could you send your recommendations to : mk7169 at hotmail dot com

thanks
