Really? I would say it is you.

This morning I brought up a project of over 100 tracks in Pro Tools, each with 2 or 3 signal processors on.

To recall the settings took about 15 seconds.

I am not sure how long it would take to recall a 100+ channel console, plus 2-300 hardware signal processors, but I am pretty sure it would be more than 5 seconds, which is 3x faster.

To be honest, I probably finished working on the session (only did an hour on it) before I would have started it, had I had to recall that on analogue gear! How would I justify that 2 hour charge to the client - when they are perfectly aware that it can be done on DAW with no recall time?
