3. Am I able to run recorded track back through the board, use the EQ section, and then rerecord that back into the DAW for later use?
Thanks!
FYI: I have to admit that I almost bought the Presonus Studiolive,  but I have been converted to the R16  even if it means another $1000. (main reasons: quality of mic pres, and DAW control) |
Hi rolandman,
The answer to your questions are:
1) Yes you can connect two ZED-R16s to a Mac by daisy-chaining the FireWire ports.
2) The MIDI fader controllers can be assigned to any MIDI controlled parameter in your DAW, if the DAW allows that (most of them do have either a learn feature or parameter assign section), so yes they can be assigned to any track fader. Also, if the DAW allows, you can assign a bank of MIDI faders and step the bank along your track list.
3) Yes indeed! I intentionally put this feature in so you can use the EQ in ZED-R16 as an "analogue plug-in" with your DAW!
Cheers,
Mike.
