Vortex Sound Research

Hi guys, I'm looking for a mixer with at least 4 inputs and probably no more than 10. There's a lot on the market and a lot of Behringer models that are cheap but Ive been told not to go for one of those. I currently have a Korg Minilogue and will soon have a Sonic Potions LXR, as well as a mic for live sound and monitors, and I'll be expanding from there. So I'm just looking for something to hook them all up. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Not looking to spend more than $500 unless I have to.
