No news I'm afraid, still love working on it, still regard it as one of the best pieces of equipment I've ever bought. I definitely have been doing more OTB and hybrid mixing since owning it, especially now I have a few nice pieces of outboard. No problems at all, no scratchy pots or graphics wearing of etc. Remember this is used for 10 hours probably on average 6 days a week, so reliability is excellent.

The one thing I hope Audient do (Are you reading this Steve?? :-) is write a new firmware update for the Zen so that if I'm mixing ITB, I can use the faders and mute as a controller, and use the 2 auxiliary buttons to bank through the DAW channels.

I thought the same on the FX return situation. I actually remember sending an email to Steve Flower at Audient an email asking him why they weren't on the console. However, in reality it hasn't bothered me (especially as I only have 1 outboard verb that I rarely use). The BEST thing about the Zen is how flexible the routing is on the channels and how you can use the inline features to great effect.
