Re: Presonus Shady Marketing Activities
Sean, I believe you meant the DL1608
Perhaps a Freudian slip?
I agree with your assessment..... although it is difficult for me to understand what Mackie was thinking when they didn't make the head amps recall-able.
I think that Presonus 16.4.2 is going to face competition from below in the <$1000.00 mixers like the DL1608, and iX16 (iPad mixers). From above, they are up against digilog mixers like the Expression Si, X32 Producer, and Qu-16. Both the 24 and 32 AI are going to be pressed by the X32 and Expression Si.
There are precious few use cases where one would decide to purchase a StudioLive (I think the 16.0.2 still has a niche though).
Perhaps all they have left is misleading marketing material?
