I did a bunch of research in mixers before I bought one for the band. That's why I mentioned the yamaha. Excellent value for the money, so are the Peaveys and Carvins. I don't know if Yamaha has a six, but I'm pretty sure Carvin and Peavey do. I'd look for a Yamaha first. Maybe an MG 12. Don't be decieved by the input numbers claimed. They'll count a stereo input as 2 input channels. You just about have to count the xlr inputs. The MG12 is actually 8 xlr's and 2 stereo channels.
