Haven't tried the OMF export since they made larger files available , but since it takes a long long time to convert the session, I doubt we'll ever do that.
Admittedly we are still using the deck mostly as a backup machine, but I've kept and used the files from the X-48 on a couple of occasions and it sounded great.

Good to know. Any idea what converters are on the analog boards? Have the converters changed since the MX2424?

1.04 I believe.

Be nice if they made the meters a bit more useful.

I agree, the front panel meters are a bit hopeless. If they just bothered to make the last couple of LEDs a different colour that would have helped. The GUI meters are a lot better, but still remain blue all the way to the top, so there's no easily-spotted indication when you're getting close to 0dbfs. Maybe they'll change that with a software update. Of course, if the GUI freezes every few seconds, so do the on-screen meters... not very helpful.
Sorry if I'm sounding negative about the X-48. I like it a lot as a concept, I just hope it fulfils its potential.
