I use the Dang 2 bus now like a mixer for workflow purposes while i'm tracking/working up a song, then go ITB for mixing .....
I also think consoles are going to be more and more DAW oriented in as much as they will take into consideration the needs of the 2008(and beyond) producer/mixers requirements and that simply means there is no need for a console that extends from one zip code to another ... most will also incorporate (as they are now) DAW control , i see the 16-24-32 channels being maximum, hopefully because of this they can up the amount of aux .....
That's my thought on this subject anyway ... |
So the Dang 2bus isn't worth the extream pricetag, eh? I was actually considering one of those long term...
Anyway I agree 100 on the above.
I think it's been several years now since SSL released a product that wasn't somehow DAW related...
