re: X32 Discussion
I've done some experimenting with the demo for SAC (With an M-Audio Profire 2626 and two ADA8000s I had in my home studio) - Being a software developer by day makes me naturally more entrusting of software (I even started developing my own ASIO digital mixing system before I found SAC) but I still can't shake the fact that I am essentially hedging the whole reliability of my system on a chopped down windows installation and the stability of the drivers M-Audio have developed, the lack of remote gains is a problem I feel.
The X32 seems to do everything I want to accomplish, especially when combined with the S16. I've never been this excited for a product launch before. I'm definitely interested in what the X16 will turn out to be, I know you mentioned something about it being a rack-bound unit (I hope with a control surface, not a tiny 2u remote-only device surely?).
I plan on having the X32 and then next to it a small rack containing a 2u racked PC, CD player and my trusty MX200.
I can't wait, I hope the UK prices stabilise.
