New Mackie Universal Controller

[Drammy]

I do understand - I have never liked Mackie anything, we used to have a cheapo mackie desk, which didn't last long.

At the end of the day it is down to the sequencer - if the HUI loses communication with PT - then that is a PT problem. Cubase SX is rock solid for me.

It is down to the developers of the sequencers to send the correct MIDI signals under the correct scenarios for the integration to be tight and perhaps Steinberg have put more effort into the MCU than Digidesign did with the HUI.

Unless of course you have all your gear midi'd/mic'd up run dirrectly into the desk with nice outboard pres and outboard processing using the computer just as a harddisk recorder. Mmmm, I guess that's the analogue summing taken care of as well then hey....

I think you may have been looking at it from the "create with-in the machine, then break out to the analogue" view there Tommer.

I use a Yamaha 01x from controlling Cubase - its a god send compared to just using mouse/keyboard or so crappy controller with no param feedback/values indicators.

If you have never tried controlling a daw with this kind of thing - the gove it a good if you get a chance - makes a hell of a difference.

dont forget about the use of analog Eqs.
IMO analog Summing devices are not 100% out of the box,maybe 80%
