Alesis Multimix 8 Usb Software
This mixer has been in production in my podcast for about 1 year. It is a workhorse. It works great... no problems. We generally use it with two microphones and often with a third skype track. The skype call comes from a dedicated PC which feeds one of the inputs (we send one of the sound outs to the mic in on the skype PC so they can hear us).The nice feature about this mixer is that it utilizes USB 2.0. Like firewire mixers, this mixer can send independent channels to the PC for recording. We can record each channel separately which is nice for post production.

[...]I held out for this product for quite some time. I was using an old Tapco USB sound card and a ZED14 mixer for recording for a long time. I saw this product and hoped it would allow me to record individual tracks in Ableton Live 8 and work as a small mixer for my turntables and sampler. It fits in perfectly, got completely ride of the Tapco USB sound card and now have 6 inputs available to me in Ableton Live 8. By simply pressing a button I can go from a normal mixer, to playing the sound from a movie in QuickTime, to Playing and Recording tracks in Live. The sound quality is great, haven't really played around with the built in effects. I have no latency problems and I am running a lot of stuff. I use:
Mac Mini 2.53GHz Pentium Core 2 Duo with OS X 10.6.7 with 4 GB RAM;
Scratch Live (w/ Video-SL), Rane SL3 (2 Technics and AEM200), the Denon DN-HC100S, and a Trigger Finger;
Ableton Live 8 with APC40;
AND NOW A MultiMix 8.
Everything seems to be playing nicely and I am truly impressed with the speed and usability of this product. I spent a lot of time looking for a solution and I could not have found a better one, especially for the price.
