Can you use all of the channels of the 828 and Aurora at the same time with your setup? What recording software are you using? |
I use the 828 as a mixer/summing box (at times). For my final mixes I by pass my 828 and go straight to a CD-RW900 to avoid further conversions.
So to answer, I use both at the same time but independently. Using 828 as a mixer gives me flexibility and facilitates a comfortable workflow when I'm mixing. Once I have the mix how I like it - I remove it from the chain. Since every thing is set to unity gain I have very little if any adjustments after I remove it from my chain.
I want to go to a smoother process - not having the extra step of removing my mix/summer from the chain before I print - but I'll have save some nickles to get the XTRA-Mix.
My set-up sounds a bit more complicated than it is - because the 828 is easy to move in and out of the chain. But all of my conversion from recording to final mixdown is done through Aurora 16.
