UTILIZATION
simple configuration
manual clear
installation of the soft and super stable connection. any crash in osx.6 Live8 and since I have.
negative after the inserts are firewire. a selector pre / post insert at the top is firewire and despite this we cope differently
SOUNDS
the console has a super sound conversion is very good, we can do is you want and the trouble to cable, décabler with firewire. for me the sound is the highlight of this console. The equalizer is great, very soft while settling well in the frequencies, it can sculpt the sound well, I do not use the EQ plugs since I my midas. The preamp is really good, I think, however complete my midas preamp with some character, those of the midas being neutral.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for 2 months now
I tried the Allen & Heath, Mackie DB8, and neve heard in the studio session SSL, Neotek.
the conversion is excellent, I find the sound better than my apogee convertos I had.
what I like most is the sound combined with the firewire interface
what I like least is the inserts after the firewire, I miss also the stereo but also good ...
having had the console has an unbeatable price is for me an excellent investment.
the same type of console there is not much competition for midas and the choice I would do with his eyes closed.
