it can't be 2000€!!! It's made in China Jules, did you ask them the estimated street price?

There isn't any motorised faders, nor is it designed to be a control surface/mixer hybrid I think. They just said you could switch any fader into a MIDI controller. It sends out MIDI messages that's all.

Though I wish it could get the additional 8 or 16 ADAT streams into the computer concurrently as the 18 from the analog channels themselves. That would make this desk killer! Then I could mix and match more expensive preamp/A-D converter combos for future expansion/upgrade. Right now it has everything I want except 24 discrete streams in capability.

I can't really understand why they built the 16 ADAT outs too? Route the FW streams from computer into ADAT out to a digital mixer? Route the onboard pres to a...digital mixer? Record to 2 ADAT/harddisk recorders? They should have just spent the money to build a FW interface that can handle more streams into the computer imo
