32 into 2 mixer with channel direct outputs each with its own level control, 3 band EQ and 4 aux busses, and switchable inserts. It is in good electronic condition and fully tested however there are a couple of small areas on the desk top that are marked which you can see in the pictures.

DAW & LIVE MIXER

This is an ideal mixer to work with a DAW, each channel has a direct output to the DAW with its own level control, the DAW outputs can be plugged into the Line Inputs in the console to allow the user to switch between the DAW input and DAW output by simply switching the Mic/Line switch 

The M4 is a compact version of the acclaimed VTC console as used by Damon Albarn and Guy Berryman–just to name a couple. Stings producer Kipper has a VTC and loaned an M4 from TL Audio to record Jeff Beck, according to Kipper the M4 sounded the same as the VTC 

2 AX7s valves on the input of every channel equates to real tube warmth and tone similar to that of old Universal Audio consoles.  Additional features include direct channel outputs with level control, 100 mm Alps K Series faders, four band equalizers with bypass, four auxiliary sends with selectable pre/post fader routing, and channel mute and pfl. All inputs have switchable +4 or -10 dBu levels to match with pro - semi pro - balanced and unbalanced outboard.

Every mic input has balanced XLR socket with switchable 48V phantom power, phase reversal, a switchable second order HPF of -3dB at 90Hz, and a gain range of +16dB to +60dB with 30dB pad. In the switchable EQ section, EQ points are as follows: HF +/-15dB @ 10KHz, HM +/-15dB @ 500Hz to 18KHz, LM +/-15dB @ 50Hz to 2KHz, LF +/-15dB @ 100Hz. Every channel features LEDs for muting and "drive" indication, when harmonic distortion is reached at the 12AX7 stage. There are L and R VUs on the stereo buss, along with clip indicators.

All in all a very comprehensive, great sounding little console at a good price.
