Here's the bad bit:

That's a lot of money for 16ch of faders and 2 in / 2 out.

I saw it yesterday, but didn't want to be the ONLY person posting about the cool new products. I didn't notice the price, though. Ouch.

I saw this a few weeks ago and gulped at the price. If it had a proper multi input souncard solution then fair enough, but the you'r not get 8 channels of SSL for that!

Looks sexeh though!

That's exactly what I thought. If it had I/O for each of those faders (or at least 8) I think they'd be flying off the shelves but you can buy 3 x Euphonix MC Mix's and nice RME DA for that kind of money which equals similar quality but more faders and far more I/O.

^^ Doesn't look that budget to me

Nice kit, but as RANN said, I'd want a full featured mixer/controller with integrated sound card for that price...

Sort of like this one, which is a lot cheaper and does a lot more... http://www.allen-heath.co.uk/uk/Dis...t.asp?pview=115

Blah blah blah, new hardware. Sure is convenient to not have to lug around 200 lbs of equipment for music production anymore. Now I just have a mac book pro, audio interface and midi controller. Travel back in time to 1990 when you had to buy stupid gear.

Besides who justifies buying that piece of hardware? Either you are a hobbyist and don't need it or you just trying to show off, like mastering engineers with analogue processing equipment (which half of them don't even have and just process the audio on the computer).

It's so much BS. It doesn't take money to write music. It takes time, patience and dedication. You need a computer, a keyboard and a audio interface with some halfway decent speakers (not even monitors man).
It's 10 times faster to just compose on a computer, rather then run to synth's, record audio and lalalallalaallalal.

Crap I'm so used to drawing precise volume levels that I don't even see how one of those would be useful at all for mixing. I mix to -5 RMS with peaks hitting just below 0.0 DB. How the F would you ever get that accurate with one of those stupid devices? The funny part is I bet you can't mix for shit and your the one posting needless gear to make yourself feel better about it.
