I'm looking for a compact mixer with quality preamps and a very simple all-analogue signal path. Don't need USB connectivity (although more and more of these things have it) nor FX. Don't need EQ or Aux/Mon sends either.
Must have:
- one mic channel with phantom power
- one Hi-Z channel
- one stereo channel for line level inputs
- main stereo out
- headphones out
That's also the right sort of size for the desktop space I have. Any other suggestions?
(That weird little Roland Go:Mixer would be a contender, but I don't expect the mic preamp quality is very good, given its intended market.)

really can’t think of a more cost/space effective idea. Don’t know how much the motu thing is, that could be worth a look
edit, this Behringer is a lump cheaper than the Steinberg, not. clear if the instrument input actually changes the impedance though
