[QUOTE="Declan Slater, post: 132034, member: 964"] Re: Roland O.R.C.H.A Console (M-5000) discussion I also think that is true, the audio differences of just the hardware itself, is much more similar currently across different consoles. I find there can be other little, "gotchas", with different digital snake systems though. I'd have to say, the the Reac system is the most robust that I've used; although other systems are nearly as reliable with more careful use. There is a German mag, can't seem to recall it now, that seems to put out bench test comparison info like that. It seems that the big differences between consoles now, is in the overall design. This console idea is most interesting, because of it's 128 channel, "Inputs-or-outputs-you-make-the-call", design. Yeah, it's nifty that it runs at 96K, but I think it's nicer that it can also run at 48K too. I'm a fan of quite a few consoles out there, and lots of those can sound good. It just always seems like, "the devil is in the details". I get frustrated with silly limitations in some designs like, you have to give up the comp to use the expander; or other things to make the user interface so complicated, and hard to remember how to get around, that it's not very much fun to mix on. I'm curious if there is a way to, or perhaps are there future plans, to mirror the settings made to one console, into another console; as a backup? [/QUOTE]
