Intuitive design, comfortable to use
Small doesn't have to be cramped. We've made the most of the Mix Series by designing them to be comfortable to use by everybody—not just dwarves or kids under four years of age. The knobs and buttons are spaced intelligently, so if you don't have the slender fingers of a professional hand model, you wont have to use tweezers to do a tweak. And because they're TAPCO, the controls are presented in a way that simply makes sense to beginners and pros alike.
