assumed it should provide the sound quality and the durability I expect
from Soundcraft and the 4 Band EQs should be good too, plus USB should
work for at least 8 I/Os duplex with less than 10 ms latency, then the
value-for-money ratio would be incredible. I don't care about the
Lexicon effects and the limiters. I more than once payed more, to get
less. Is it for recording only or for playback, resp. duplex too?
I've been doing a lot of reading on this board! It looks like the USB
is full duplex; it will send 24 channels (20 + the stereo "playback" +
stereo mains) out and receive 22 channels (20 + "playback").
On paper, USB 2.0 will provide enough bandwidth for all channels, but the
devil will be in the details. Coming from the live sound perspective, the
workflow here is really nice, and the USB channel inserts should allow
interesting things. One forum had a discussion about using this along
with Harrison Mixbus to master and get the bonus of the board's analog
summing which could be an amazing thing.
I will definitely give some feedback on this when it finally ships!
