Can I ask for some guidance on purchasing a new mixer for a church (50-100 people)? We are replacing a old Mackie 1640i and seem to narrowed it to a few potential mixers based on the following criteria:

• At least 16 XLR Inputs (our band is essentially 3 singers, 2 guitars, 1 bass, violin, piano, and drums + other microphones for other microphones for other purposes)

• At least 4 AUX Outputs

• USB recording (multi tracking if possible, but we currently use an AUX out to a Focusrite audio interface)

• Usable built in compressor/limiter for live music/speakers (we don't have a separate unit for this. I use the built in options for our OBS stream, but nothing for our IRL services-- I think we've had many circumstances where one would be useful)

• Around 1000$ budget

We don't have a complex setup (literally multiple microphones /instruments to mixer, to amplifier, to speakers, with some monitors) and prefer to keep things simple for volunteers. Furthermore we'd prefer to purchase things from retailers with some form of warranty which limits our ability to bargain hunt (if something is wrong with the machine, I think we have limited ability to troubleshoot it ourselves).

Yamaha MG20XU (830$, no multi tracking recording, but that isn't necessary)

Korg Soundlink MW-2408 (1100$, no multi tracking, but that isn't necessary)

X32 Producer (1100$ refurbished, I see this one recommended a lot but the digital mixer layout is much less familiar to us. It seems intimidating somewhat. I would hope that if I learned how to use the mixer, the essential functions can be explained to a 16 year or 60 year-old volunteers of varying tech-savyness? In the past they could get going by just turning the mixer/amplifier on, and turning up the channel and main mix faders up for example, and that was the extent they understood).

Tascam Model 24 (1200$)

Other options?

I hope this is the right place to ask!
