Maybe becuase (an were only talking hi-end here) there is no competition between mixing on a quality analog board and in PT. Period. the only reason anyone is mixing in PT is becuase 1. budgets 2.Someone hasn't done it yet and they want to be the first to show that they can make it sound as good with that excuse for a mixer inside PT ....and budget. Everyone can argue agianst this all they want to justify ther situation...but being that peolple could save a ton of money (and people like to do that)....tell me why people still opt to mix on consoles when they can? And I mean people that can mix however they want. PT does alot of cool things fast, and helps complete projects cheaply in this time of less than stellar average musicianship...but a first class mixer it is not. And anybody arguing otherwise (imo) has an agenda and has not done both, or can't hear the differrence...which is saying alot, because the majority of clients can (when they're given the choice).
Ask any experianced engineer..."Do you wanty to mix this on [pick:8078 w/moving faders/SSL J/G/E etc,...ect; OR ProTools" almost ALL will pick the analog, especially if their name is going on it. We like things to sound Great.
