The new multi-voltage power supply allows it to be used anywhere in the world.

Comments about Mackie 1642-VLZ3 Premium 16-Channel/4-Bus Compact Mixer:
Considering the price, I'm quite happy with this product. I would recommend you download the user manual from Mackie to make sure it has all the inputs, outputs and routings you're looking for. Some people may expect more from a 16 channel unit but this was fine for me. I like the fact that it has 8 direct outs that I can plug to one of my ADAT recorders and 8 sub outs for the second ADAT. I happen to use a 24 channel Mackie to do the mixing so this unit is dedicated to tracking. I noticed a big difference in sound quality between the expanded range inputs and the normal inputs so again, make sure you read the specifications carefully before buying. Overall I think it's a good value for your money if it fits your application.
