I have a Motormix for 4 years.
I use it every single day, for all my activities in music and audio-visual post-production. I use it mainly in Protools, but I sometimes use it with Live or Max / MSP (the configuration outside of ProTools is a bit tedious, if not impossible without a software interface).
I will speak of how ProTools (in fact a kind of HUI compatible with virtually all major software)
--------------------
This is an area of CONTRL noon, an input port, an output port, a power us for juice, no external transformer. Connectivity "ACCESSORY" in SubD-9 linker to be used up to 4 Motormix I think.
In a building strong enough, and housing mtal blanks "-plastic rubber" is an area that has many functions:
A "large" green LCD display (2 lines and 8 blocks of 5 characters)
8 motoriss 100mm faders, but not touch (do not activate when you put your finger just above)
8 endless pots for Pan, Sends, parameters of plugins ... their value on the lcd rpercute
1 pots / button that allows you to choose to send to that one with the other 8 CONTRL pots (2 digit red display) by pressing on the sends contrlent faders instead of the volume, another pressure it returns to normal.
For each "slice" (there are 8) are: mute, solo, select, rec, key automation (read / touch / latch ..).
There is a range of non utiliss 8 buttons in this mode. The names of the tracks are abbrgs of 5 characters in the LCD above each slice.
It then orders the suspension / activation group, the main controls: play, stop, fwd, rewind, automation enable / suspend, plug and undo much sr, window view ...
---------
I particulirement ergonomics, it is not big and trs arises effortlessly on a large analog console or keypad mac prs. The faders are not noisy trs means a 'tock' hand when the fader in the opposite direction quickly.
However, as the faders are not touch, it's pretty hard to catch in a fader automation. We must counter the movement of the fader for the Motormix to say "oh yes, it is the ..." and relaxation of the fader. You need to have 2 hands on Motormix so that when the right wants to catch a little automation RAPD, left the keys apuis automation.
I pay 300 Euros to time by the ads I think c'tait an excellent deal. The surfaces of today: Tascam, DIGI002, Mackie ... are either too Chres are too cheap (digi) or without notch (tacsam) ...
If I had to buy a new surface now I Rasht, even for more expensive (not too).
