hi! i need to buy a mixer..
i have an rm1x, an A3000 sampler, and a computer
can i be ok with a 8ch mixer or do i need to buy some huge 32 one? i know it would be safe with a 32 but i can buy a big one after i get signed or a job :P


also... any suggestions for courses or books on electronnic music composing,musictheory,producing etc?

If your just working with synths,samplers and your computer, then 8 chanels is fine but keep in mind expansion.... you might buy a synth or another sampler in the next year, and what if you get a few effex procesors and nee to do alot of sub mixes? Its always a good idea to buy gear that you know will last you at least 2 years. if you might buy 3 more synths you may need 10 more inputs to your mixer...... but yes you can always upgrade when you get your big money making contract....but just don't count on that money.
