Sad to say but I do not have a back up to my mixer. I have everything else backed up. I don't want anything with a bunch of bells and whistles. Just something that I can use in case my Yamaha gives out.
I run 3 mics, two mains, 1 stage monitor, and one sub thru the mixer currently. Any suggestions? Used is fine.

Keep an eye on Craigslist and run model numbers past us as they show up.

Or if you have a reason to want an upgrade, buy something nicer and make that one your backup. My 32 channel Behringer is my backup mixer now that I got some Soundcraft.

? I'm perfectly happy with my Yamaha. Not looking to upgrade, just want a backup. I have everything else backed up. I don't want to spend a lot of money, I've spent enough money on what I have so a decent used one will make me happy.
Honestly, I'm not much of a craigslist person. I've checked it out a few times lately, NEVER see anything I am looking for.

I mean, what do you want, something that works for under $200? Be realistic, or be a really savvy shopper and keep an eye on ebay/craigslist/yard sales.

Just saw this thread and I was on the phone ordering a Behringer Xenyx 1222FX as a backup mixee. Over the years I have used Mackie and found Behringer . I have been using nothing but Behringer for about 6 years no and they have provided great sound when used with Shure SM58 Mics abd JBL EON powered 15's . And I have just ordered one for $209.

As a matter of a fact, yes, I do want something that works for under $200. I'm a big ebayer so that was going to be my main hunting ground, was just hoping for some suggestions to look for.
I heard these same type of comments when I was searching for my first laptop and I ended up spending $220 for a Toshiba that has worked just fine.

Why not just try to find a used model of the same mixer you already used. Then there would be no surprises in sound & you already know exactly how to hook it up & set it? _________________ LIKE Lonman on Facebook - Lonman Productions Karaoke & my main site via my profile!

I used the 124cx for shows and have an 82cx that I use at home and for any shows I travel to. I think the 82cx is a fine little backup so long as you don't require faders as controls.

I am currently selling a Yamaha16/6FX for 225.00 if your interested, it retails for over 475.00
I can ship it for actual cost too. It is a step up from what your using and has only been used maybe four times, so it's like new, it was my back up!

That actually looks like a really good deal. It has a sweepable mid and a subgroup. Tapco is made by Loud/Mackie, and I use one of their amps and a pair of subs and like them OK.
