for more details see line6 site

I put "only" 8 because obviously we'd always have + of inputs and outputs as well for my use, I am filled with 100%

UTILIZATION

a mixer tactile, intuitive interface, parameter settings to the way plugins VST sequencers of our well-known

all hands on fast mode "quick", an advanced mode, everyone found there

I put "only" 7 because I just like the analog world and I usually mix with faders, knobs are not terrible for me ... I think this is a shot taken?
on the other hand on ipad knobs I do not like at all, to "turn" must her finger up or down to the way the mouse in cubase for example, and it clearly lacks finesse.

the ipad via wifi in ulisation requires a good external router with good coverage or lose sync very often! on the other hand when loss of sync, no worries audible on the table or the mix!

SOUNDS

I am not well versed to deliver an opinion on the relevant transparency preamps, conversion etc ...

My only point of comparison is my 01v classic that has more than 10 years! and I think the M20D surpasses in all areas!
the sound seems to me less cold on my 01v
effects are more numerous and better (in my opinion)
pross the dynamics are provided and more
management via new firmware promises future updates

recording mix I usually find the output level a little low but I have so far worked on the table in a repet birthday and a small room. So I think it's because I have not had to push very hard on his

OVERALL OPINION

I have this table for 3 weeks and I'm happy for now!

I waited this table since it was announced at NAMM in January, for me it was the perfect table I needed to report MY personal use.

I have a dance orchestra to 7 elements with the constraint of not being able to have a place in certain prestas to install a board in front of the stage, I was so tired of making trips / trips between the stage and the room!
then I mix on ipad, this is happiness! was compromised with the musicians to lighten up and everyone is happy!

before I trimballais rack with additional 2nd table mix and splitters (to save power in divided doses + other returns) + all sources bedding duplicate multicore ...

Now I have only one table, four separate returns for the 4 zicos who really need the 3 other musicians, each transplanted back on the mix front and rolling! dividing the time of install and balance by 2
