Let me guess — you've been salivating over Gearwire's video of the M-16DX from Musikmesse, frustrated at your economic shortcomings preventing you from owning the digital mixer with a backlit LCD and grapical spectrum analysis. You curse the name of Julian Tritsch for demoing such a sweet product. You crack jokes about Edirol sounding like a pharmaceutical.

This ain't The Constant Gardener, though, so the fine folks at Edirol have delivered the M-10DX Digital Mixer. "More portable and affordable than its M-16DX big brother," they say; the M-10DX includes a 24-bit/96kHz processing engine and the aforementioned backlit LCD. The M-10DX is capable of pro-quality FX, including insert effects, reverb/echo, flexible analog and digital I/O, Room Acoustic Control for instant automatic room compensation, and scene memories for the instant recall of channel and effect parameters.
