I am using the old Alesis 1622 mixer with my setup and I don't know what I
would do without it.  The mixer becomes the heart of all signal routing and
frankly in an instrument all by itself.  Sonic development requires it for
me.  I need the kind of routing it has to be able to use some of an effect
and be able to switch on the fly to something else ... especially when
playing live.
