I bought the Multimix8 about a year and a half ago. I was looking for something compact and solid to use both for home studio recording (GarageBand and Logic Studio Pro) as well as on-line karaoke with Zoom. The build and sound quality are excellent. I have owned other Alesis gear in the past and that helped inform my decision to go with this product sight unseen.
It has some important features that I value including sweepable mids on the first 2 channels as well as built-in reverb and an external effects send. Additionally, there is an insert on the first 2 channels as well which means the ability to use side chain compression. Nothing else in this price range had all of those features. There was a Yamaha that came close but required using a computer to access and control effects so it could not be completely standalone. There is also flexible input and output routing via switches which are important depending on what you are doing with it and how you want to monitor audio.
It is limited to 44.1/48khz 16bit stereo digital in and out via USB but that is not an issue for me. That said I do wish it had a few other features. Exclusion of some of these are purely about keeping the cost down:
I would love solo and mute buttons on the channels. These seem to be missing from all small mixers but are immensely valuable things to have! (I would have paid the same amount of money for only a 4 channel mixer that had all features on every channel plus solo/mute). It would also be really nice to be able to control the volume of the digital audio input. The digital audio FX are passable but limited (I use one of the Alesis reverbs then add in delay when needed externally with the effects send).
So ultimately truly a great piece of hardware which I highly recommend!

A really great professional quality mixer for a good price.
I want to address first and foremost to anyone wondering, this mixer only outputs a stereo mix from the Main channel over USB. The channels are not routed individually.
Besides that, you get a lot of functionality including two parametric EQ's, and EQs on every channel and built in FX sends that I have found incredibly useful and of great quality. One thing I also really enjoy about this mixer is I've found it to have far less noise than my other DACs. Which I assume is just the quality internals of an Alesis product
I personally like to use this mixer to mix my drums and then send it's output into a seperate USB audio interface along with my other instruments/mics.
This mixer has more functionality than I have mentioned, some of which I'm not entirely sure how to use yet! But I think any entry level recording enthusiast would enjoy this amazing quality mixer
