My previous mixer was a simple stereo mixer and didn't have them - ironically it was exactly the Yamaha MG102 shown as "bad" example on Tweakheadz. Everything that was sent to the speakers also went to the headphones and worse: Everything that was output by the speaker also went to the soundcard input. This makes live monitoring while recording completely impossible. I replaced it with Compact4 recently, and now I can listen to myself singing to a recorded track on headphones while recording my voice. Well, I could: I don't sing. ;) > You should not record from a mixer but connect the sources as direct to the > A/D-converters as possible.

My card is a M-Audio Audiophile and to connect a mic to it, I need a seperate preamp anyway. Both the Yamaha and the Soundcraft preamps sound fine enough for me.
