Re: Venice F


Well that's interesting! What's your round trip latency with the PCI I/O cards?


I own an f32 and use it mainly in my home studio. I thought I was gonna sell it until I realized how glorious to work with Ina home studio environment.


Having used if live a few times I really like it. Best small format analogue console there is and it says midas on it which always helps when renting. It sounds great and feels great and is easy to use. Only thing I didn't like was the FireWire integration or lack there of at the groups and masters. You can take direct outs to a laptop from there but you can't return FireWire audio back. So you can't use external plugins at the groups or over the masters. Bummed me out. Was really looking forward to trying multi band compression over the mix and being anle to leave most of my outboard at home and such but no dice. And not being able to comp at the groups is a big deal when running wedges from FOH. But honestly you have to have a stout laptop to be confident in stability and get over round trip latency issues anyway. And it's a lot to manage. Don't sell your hardware outboard.


so while its limited as a hybrid digital analogue console multitracking and using virtual soundchecks is an excellent feature.
