Re: Automixer solutions
Hi Will.
We would not purchase the E1's, we would rent them, $120 per day. But with your advice re Live Professor, the Waves plugin becomes much more realistic.
There are still issues to be addressed - Will the ADAT card for the X32 have access to insert points on every channel of the X32?
And, can one plug in multiple instances of the waves Dugan plugin, to get sixteen channels, and can they be linked to work together? (I suppose a trip to their website would answer that)
I find the Dugan is so useful in my venue that I'm willing to put up with the ugly patching. I'm even considering building a special cable with the XLRs reversed as necessary.
I have found that if you use the channel's direct outs to feed the Dugan on the Aux inserts, you can set the direct out to be post fader, and thus get the ability to disable channels by simply pulling the fader down. I haven't been able to check if this will work with the last two channels, which have to use the weird patch, but I don't see why not.
Glad to know there is someone else interested in this!
