Presonus Live- Studio Mixer

[DarkPlasma]

Hey guys,

There is this new Mixer from prosonus that looks freaking amazing.

PreSonus

16 Channels, 4 subgroups, and on top of that a 'compressor,gate,eq,limiter,and i believe effects' on each channel...thats apart from the obvious panning and gain faders (100mm!!) ...


My question is this:

I expected a price of a mixer with these functions A LOT higher than $2000, but it seems thats what its appearing for. So im guessing the quality of those processors may not be the greatest.

1) Ableton + UAD Ultra Pak + 2X evolution UC33e (or any controller)
2) Ableton + This mixer

Which would you pick?


Thanks!

Dunno, looks cool and the features look good. Wondering how good the summing or "big" it sounds. "32-bit floating point processing" is the same as Protools LE and that summing is questionable. Wonder how it compares to an older version Yamaha 02R. Nice find n**N.

i too have been looking at this product and i agree, it sounds too good to be true. i've read some reviews at musicians friend they all sounded good. but at the same time, they sounded like salesmen. i want to talk to a few people who own one and hear some honest critiques.post if you hear something.

Contact seller "cphonic" in EBAY. He builds out studios and has used 16 and 24's on a number of installs.

I agree, I want to see some actual reviews and 3rd party test numbers. The pres in this thing have got to be junk. The only thing presonus that I really can use without shooting myself in the foot is the ACP88 for basic soft knee line compression of the romplers and drum machines in the room and comp/gating DI'd guitars before modeling. Their preamps though at least the ones I've used, total yuck zone.
