The Holophone H4 Supermini (the $2500 model) can output each track
individually.  Holophone's literature says, "Six line-level Analog
outputs one per channel available from three stereo 3.5mm female Mini-
plug Jacks."

I'm guessing here, but I think the six pin mini-XLR on the PortaMic
Message: 5.
Subject: 1 provides the same one-mic-per-channel function.  Why would they
include the six pin XLR output if it did not?

The question I have is, how do the PortaMic and Supermini differ from
each other?  The large difference in price suggests that a cheaper mic
capsule is used in the PortaMic.
