[QUOTE="Jason Raboin, post: 26908, member: 524"] Re: SC48 Post forward from PSW I have and SC48 and have some frustrations, but would still take it over any of the Yamaha offerings. The sound quality more than makes up for the few gripes I have about the software. To tackle your issues... -Tablet control - you can use VNC, and control the console. Why does it matter if it effects the surface? -Mouse use - I do agree that it is slightly annoying how much you are tethered to the mouse on the SC48, but I spend most of my days, whether in the office or mixing, tethered to a mouse. I think that's the reality these days. -Screen doesn't change - I'm not following you on this one. If you are on the plug in page and select a channel, it takes you to the plug in for that channel. Same for the input tab. I think a lot of people who rely heavily on snapshots would be in trouble if every time they selected a channel it took the monitor to the input screen. -No output parametrics - The SC48 has 20 more plug ins than the M7, so complaining about having to eat them up for output parametric eq doesn't really work. Also, the channel eq and dynamics on the SC48 sound far better than those on the M7, so even if you only use your 20 plug ins for output parametric eq and effects, I still think you have the M7 beat. I also think that most PA systems these days have input parametric eq available on the system processor. That said, I am looking to get a nice parametric TDM plug in for the instances where there are not parametrics available. I would gladly trade 8 of the graphics for 8 good parametric eqs. -Mono fader - I always use the matrices for my outputs, so the left/right is more than sufficient for me. When do you need the mono output fader? -Arrow keys - yeah, this would be a great feature. I hate trying to change values with the mouse. The arrows on my keyboard do this though. Have you tried that? -Encoder select - I always leave mine on an unused aux send to avoid situations like you speak of above. If you don't have any unused auxes, then this would be pretty annoying. -LRM check boxes - again, if you use the matrices as your master outputs, you would not have this issue, correct? [/QUOTE]
