After some thorough due diligence and help from Sweetwater, I have settled with the CQ18T, thank you Brian for the insight on the Mixing station app! Best regards to all,
– Galileo.
So the mixer is out of stock currently at my local shop and have also gotten other mixed replies on YouTube just now,
That gives me more time to think about my decision and I am open to more input from the community! Thanks again!
