ProTools has scrubbing from the keyboard, and while you can program a
control knob to send the scrubbing commands, the latency is kind of annoying.
The combination of the Mackie hard disk recorder and the big remote
control had a great scrub, very responsive and very good resolution. And
combine the recorder with the d8b digital console and you have a pretty
nice workstation. I never really warmed up to the d8b when I was working
with Mackie, but compared to digital consoles today, for studio use,
it's way ahead of modern digital consoles - functionally speaking - like
the PreSonus "Studio"Live.
New ones sound better and have more bells, whistles, and outputs, but
they're really designed for live sound applications and lack some things
that are important for a studio console. The excuse for not providing
things like metering on all of the channels all the time is that you can
get those on your monitor via your DAW. But that's another piece, and
another place to look at.
