I mix in the box but needed a new analogue desk with plenty of inputs. The onyx pre amps are incredibly quiet, the sound is open and accurate, swicthing solid, EQ gentle with no nasty surprises. It would have been useful if the 2 onboard fx had a feedback control for the delays but I have plenty of good delays for mixing so not a real issue. At this price point I would say it's the best on the market.
