Old school, old dog, goes back to school
Teaching an old dog new tricks. If you have ever tried it, it can be
frustrating; especially if your the dog. I have an old-school engineering background, large format console, lots of channels, EQ's, insert for processing, then bussing to those lovely 2" behemoths. Inline monitoring design... it was all so easy.. right there in front of you.. all hands on. Now I need to set up a digistudio around a ProTools HD system and I find myself pulling out my hair to know what to put around it. I have been a faithful MOTU DP user in my last few years. But never needing to record more than one or two live tracks at a time, a couple of nice channel strips have served me well. But now I need at least 16 simultaneous inputs, and I hate mouse mixing. So I want some kind of front end where I can use EQ and Dynamics on each input BEFORE it hits the digital realm, easy to use foldback system, then have some tactile controller to mix and control the DAW with. It there such a beast? or am I looking at a rack full of pre's, and eq's and comp's and some control surface for the back end? Is there a digital mixer where the eq and dynamics won't induce a perceived latency that you have found that works and sounds great? I am just not savvy on the new stuff to know. Your expert advice is appreciated. Ron |
