I work for the Information Technology Group at Carnegie Mellon
University's multimedia group (wow, never typed the whole thing out
before now I know why).  Anyway, we just set up a full MIDI lab, and for
our mixer, we got a Yamaha DMP-7, it's a really nice 8 channel full MIDI
implementation mixer.  It might be really pricey though, it was here
before I started working, so I'm not sure of the price.  It's got three
effects sends, but it also has onboard effects, so two of the sends
don't even go out!  They go to the onboard effect processors (which are
very nice) so that it never comes out of digital. Oh, did I mention that
the DMP-7 is digital?  It is.  Another nice thing about the DMP-7 is
that the faders move by themselves, we have set up some funny sequences
with the faders alone.  That is just a toy-feature I know, but it is
really cool.  I haven't seen the MOTU 7s, so I can't compare it, but if
you have some money to spend, I would rec the DMP-7
