[BC] Mackie & Berhinger Mixers For A Radio Station

I would consider the Arrakis or Autogram's low end console for for a On Air
studio before a Mackie mixer.  

Logiteks audio engines are very nice, we use them, but for a small station,
probably to much money, unless they plan to grow.

I have two of them.  PIA.  Retired one for parts to keep #2 going at a
remote "main studio".

As much as I hate Arrakkis, their tiny board is ahead of the Mini-Mix 8 for
the money.

Having said the above, Logitek's V-mix with their engine is a neat option
for a virtual console loaded with bells and whistles.
