The Korena take

The MG20 is a 20-channel console for larger installed, recording, or live music setups. Twelve mono MIC/LINE channels and four stereo LINE channels provide the input layout, while four GROUP buses, four AUX [FX] buses, and the stereo bus create multiple routing paths within the mixer. Mono-channel controls include phantom power, a 26 dB PAD, one-knob compression, EQ, and an 80 Hz high-pass filter. Its two 12-segment LED meters give a detailed view of stereo output level.
