Very happy -- it took me a little while to figure out how to tweak the comps and eqs on the individual inputs, but that's down to the limitations of having just a small LCD for a GUI. I also find I have to wind the "Sens" control up to full to get hot enough input for the DAW most of the time -- that seems counter-intuitive. But it's rock solid, and the mic pres are nice. Worth every penny, I think. Cheers, Martin --- news://freenews.netfront.net/ - complaints: news(a)netfront.net ---

Alot of that was over on this side of the pond though, they had awesome success over there. > I wonder what Dave Hill is doing now?

The last time I talked to him, he moved back to the UK (a few years ago), when Slade reformed <sans Noddy and eventually Jim, I beleive, as Slade II, then back to Slade the last I heard.>. He sent me a couple of the demo's of the new stuff and it sounded good, still had the underlying slade drive. We lost contact so I dont know what they are up to now, but I'm sure they are kicking butt whatever they are doing. > Must get myself another copy of Slade Alive. Lost my copy decades ago... Me too!

Plus it affected performance of other sound programs in my system. That's not supposed to happen. -- Regards, Ted Perlman www.tedperlman.com www.myspace.com/tedperlman www.facebook.com/ted.perlman

<Bottom line is to use what gets the job done quickly without losing any quality, and that will vary from one person to another> Exactly! For me it's either Nuendo, Logic, or Pro Tools. For you it's Sonar and Reaper. For Joey ? it's Cakewalk 3 DOS or C Lab Notator :-) -- Regards, Ted Perlman www.tedperlman.com www.myspace.com/tedperlman www.facebook.com/ted.perlman |
