Really? When I joined this thread, people were raving how MixBus sounds so much different from other DAWs, and that its summing was much better than that of other DAWs, that MixBus makes everything sound more analogue and 3D.
Did I imagine all that?
Go, read through the first 50-odd pages of this thread, and you'll find no mention of the fact that MixBus is little more than a plug-in that was fused with Ardour.
If it is true that you need to engage the EQs or compressors or saturation effect to benefit from any special "summing", Harrison should state that clearly in their documentation. If you run a signal through MixBus without any processing, nothing extraordinary happens to it, at unity or at different settings. This is a reality, very different from the ideas that were bandied around on this thread, before some people, myself included, did some actual testing.
If I wasn't bored already with this MixBus nonsense, I would perform more tests to determine if engaging EQs, compressors or saturation does anything unusual to the summing. However, my money is on that it doesn't.
Quite frankly, Harrison's marketing department seems unbelievable incompetent and inept at efficiently dealing with the public. Harrison are bullshitting their way into the DAW market, and it's embarrassing to watch.
