"The sound of the console is great. Mic pre's are good and EQ is great.
It seems to be a top quality analog desk."
Do you feel your mix(s) "sound" better bringing the tracks back through the Zed, than if you mixed it all itb?
I currently mix itb, and most times I'll insert some analog gear(cubase 4). The ability to insert analog pieces into my itb mix really makes a difference in my "sound", as it were,..but for the higher price, the Zed would have to impart an above average "sonic mojo" for me to give serious consideration.
The other features seem pretty flexable. I don't like the fact that I can only use the digital ins and outs at 44.1 . I sometimes will track a 88.2, but use a Benchmark adc-1 to go back into cubase, bypassing my firepods converters. With the Zed, it looks like I could only use the adc-1 at 44.1 .. and I do like the unit, especially at 88.2k.
At any rate, I'm still considering it, as I do need to expand to 16 channels. So any more you could offer as to the difference you believe it can make in an otherwise in the box mix, would be greatly appreciated.
