M-Audio Project Mix I/O Control & Focusrite Pro 40

What up slutz, am in the process of looking to pick up a mixing board, solely so i can have more stability while mixing tracks etc, am interested into picking up M-Audio Project Mix I/O Control, my current audio interface is focusrite pro 40.

The Projectmix is not a mixer, it is an interface and mixing control surface.

Read the manual for it to see if it can be used as a control surface MIDI-style. If it can't then you'll have to choose what you want to use as an audio interface, the M Audio or the Focusrite.

The ProjectMix' pres and conversion are horrible. Having owned one and moved to a LynxTwo card... So I would recommend only using the control section of it and use your Focusrite for anything audio. By the way, my experience with the Projectmix is that it is a bitch to get going correctly. You need a dedicated firewire card with a TI chipset to ensure it works properly. I'm running a I7 on a ASUS motherboard and it didn't work with the onboard Firewire. It recognised it, installed the drivers, but it just didn't work. The control service is decent though, good faders, display gets quirky sometimes. I wouldn't buy it again.
