Which was one of my reasons for going with the Crest, although why this
thing is even suggested for anything BUT an installation I don't know.
Phantom power is not only recessed but on the back panel and a bear to
reach. It works fine in my gig rig for a weeks worth of festival events,
but it's really a pain otherwise, so I have two different rack units to
carry it in, depending on the type of gig. For some reason I simply don't
like mixing in the vertical (which is necessary if you want access to the
backplane. Seems too strange.

But then the product itself is excellent in sound quality and routing
flexibility if one ignores the less than stellar ease of setup. Overall
I'm
still glad I didn't get the Venice.

However, George, I don't know how this relates to a Behringer thread! g


My GL2's were set up like your crest
I ended up making a duplicate back panel and a slant rack with patches to
the gl2's inputs so I could get easy access
while i was at it I added a parellel mult for the snake
