[QUOTE="Dan Mortensen, post: 121101, member: 2826"] Re: S16 and phantom pops I have and have had a number of consoles where global phantom is the only choice, and while objecting intellectually to using same, never heard an issue from it that I can recall. Is there an audible penalty for capitulating and getting the job done? My whole argument for several pages is that there is no need to capitulate, that there is a way to keep intellectually pure and only power the things that need powering. The other side of the argument seems to be that what is happening (depowering of phantom in scene-unused S16's and then repowering when selected) is not actually happening when powering them from the channel strips and not the preamp page. Yet I'm not opposed to capitulating when that is truly the only option. Forgive me for implying that I was tired of this somehow. My intent was to provide hope for those who aren't interested in what I find fascinating and write at length about since I'm incapable of summarizing in 20 words or less a concept and sequence of events that all need to be described and explained to get the point across. 8 posts by me on this page alone seemed like it could be seen as excessive. [B]I[/B] think it's excessive, but sometimes there's a lot to say and other times not much. Am I the only one who likes giving and receiving "likes"? I feel like the recent string of posts has broken new ground and/or confirmed what was only suspected or thought of in another way, and until these quotes and Timmy's thanks it almost didn't seem like anyone was noticing. Some hyperbole there, agreed. It's always nice interacting with you guys. I'm always impressed with how Per can figure out what's going on and what's causing it from reading a description, and how Tim keeps it real, not to mention Robert, Timo, Christian, Eric, John D, Joe, Evan, and a ton of other people who I'm now offending by not mentioning their names. And it's always electrifying when Uli pops in and it's clear that he's keeping up with the discussions. And it never fails to amaze that we are all over the world and fascinated by the same thing. Enough. Thanks, Dan [/QUOTE]
