Or, if you want *REAL* faders for the channels and not just knobs, you may
want to consider the MX1604A.  It was only slightly more expensive than
the 802A when I got it.  It has 4 busses and 16 channels.  Very nice
unit.  It is what I use in my shack and can be seen in action at:

Oh, one more comment: You can't go wrong with Behringer.  I also have one
of their large 24 channel boards.
