Yamaha digital mixing boards

Thinking of getting a Yamaha digital board for garage band work.

Are there substantial improvements in the later models?
Any I should avoid?

I'm sure the 01V96 would work fine, but for a garage band, I think the
original 01V would work just as well.

Always

Any that you can't understand how to operate or require too much extra
stuff to interface with the rest of your hardware.

The original ProMix 01 was 48 kHz only, but there was a modification
(third party, I believe) to switch it to 44.1 kHz.

The BloMix 01 was a truly annoying and bad sounding piece of gear. I
had to do PA through one once and it was really a circus.
Unfortunately, the dude sent along with the BloMix knew as much (read as
little) as I did about it, so we were reading the manual an awful lot
that afternoon. Not very productive or professional...

One thing in its favor was that it was really very quiet. Can't say
much else good about it...
