At first I was fooled by prejudices and I preferred another Chinese - BEHRINGER - to this unknown Chinese. When the DSP on my Xenyx went out within a week and after repairing it within a month the power supply went out, I said enough ! I don't have money to waste, I can't afford a YAMAHA. But the dealer recommended me this. I openly say - I regret that I didn't buy it right away. It's got everything I need. The corrections are effective, they work where they should, the effects are enough for my singing, it has a listening path, it hums much less than the Behringer. And after more than a year, it's working flawlessly so far. Recommended. For the money it is definitely worth it.
