Hi Mike, couple of quick questions.
1: Is there a reason why I have to shut down my DAW software to adjust the buffer size. Im thinking if this could have been changed with an update it would have happened by now?
2: I can get all the midi stuff working in the master section but not the transport in either Cubase SX3 or Ableton Live. Is there a button configuration I have to press. I have all the correct midi inputs setup on the daw

Your probably near the end of the design stage of the larger version, But just in case theres still some time heres a few suggestions in no particular order of importance. AND BTW, it really is a fantastic prduct.
1: How about making the two pre fade sends switchable to post. I dont use pre fade at all and it seems a waste they sit there and do nothing.
2: There is (im sure) a big market out there for people like my self who make electronic music but want some analog action on the mix. Mic pres are not that useful for us so we dont need 24/32 mic pres
which Im sure must add to the cost. I know some want loads of mic pres. maybe you guys could do 2 versions
(probably wishful thinking) with one aimed at the DAW user who only ever need a couple of mic pres but want a lot of channels for returning all those VST outs and line ins for outboard synths. Im coming from the electronic/Dance market. Instead of Mic pres I could think of a million things I would rather have, but I wont bore you with a million suggestions, Im sure you get the idea
3: The midi section is very useful but could be much more so with programmeble memory so I can set up patches for various VST synths etc. The feel of those faders and pots are excellent for midi stuff and having them right there on the console is ace. But I suspect you guys are already thinking of expanding on the midi section.
And finally I think giving people a free hamster called Zed with every purchase would be a deal breaker. Or perhaps we could save the Gray squirrels which Prince Charles wants to wipe out. I prefer a hamster, but a squirrel will do. A+H could train them up first to perform basic automation tasks and make the tea. Hamsters are pretty bored in general and according to my sources their getting nervous about the squirrel situation..
I have little ZED semi trained up and will be showing him at the next Namm. He's nervous, but excited about his debut.
