It's the Tapco MIX120 board.

But it's not the best one anymore. In fact, I can't even find the Tapco brand anymore. I'd instead suggest the Behringer Xenyx 1002B. It's much better.

Those are about ~$125 at Amazon or B&H: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...0&linkCode=as2

Excellent board.

These allow you to pre-process audio via the 3x EQ and levels (gain), and then further process in Sound Forge or Audacity, which is precisely what I do. With these boards, you can known out a lot of initial hiss and volume issues.

Thanks, I will get the board mention from Amazon.
