can any of you who've owned or operated both tell me about the advantages and disadvantages of using a digital mixer, versus an analog one? ive owned an mg10 by yamaha for 4 yrs now and it has since passed on into mixer heaven to be with mixer God. when i have some cash i'm thinking of replacing it w/ a digital mixer...

i dont think a good analog mixer can be beaten unless of course you use a large crow bar.

um it depends - small digital mixers are rare and there are just a few models right now - they have just realised that consumers might want to use digital mixers too.
and as they are rare - they are quite pricey yet so that's probably the only reason you might NOT have a digital mixer. besides that in the consumer range digital hits analog on the head with a brick. when you would go pro and buy a 100.000 dollars mixstation THEN you might consider between analog/digital. but in the homestudio range there's nothing to think about.

i just realised that there are actually only 4 mixers to choose from...
the yamaha n8 and n12 (1000 or 1500 dollars) or the edirol m10dx and m16dx (400 and 700 dollars).
target=_blank>the m16/a> is my favourite - the fact that the patch bay is in another casing, and lcd for accurate multiband eq'ing, digital effects, acoustic room control which compensates the flaws of your room (has an inbuilt mic so it knows how to do it), usb for using it as an audio card and scenes so you can actually save setups that you made makes this baby worth every penny

now wait a sec. you were asking for a mixer not a audio-interface. the motu can mix your stuff but doesn't have eq's and stuff which are mixer related so what do you want actually

the motu thingie is great - although what's interesting is that it lacks popularity copared to the firewire 800 - weird, the price is similar.

What kind of mixer are you talking about?
I mean.. the thing you linked made me think more of a soundcard than a mixer.
If you're talking about studio or dj mixers, definitely go with analogue, but if it's a sound card, you can't really get it analogue anyway
Have a beer, don't care
