Well Eric, I've been using a DM 24 for some mixing, can't imagine your version is much different. Nice unit. I don't mind mixing on it. But they've really never been known for desirable quality microphone preamps. They just don't do anything for me. With all the cool stuff they make, I don't think they ever quite learned how to produce a quality Mike preamp that was warm, fat and desirable. Go figure? You'd think they finally get it right by now but I don't think so. There's no reason not to use the microphone preamps but no real good reason to use them. Good recorders but everything else that they make is strange. Get 8 API or Neve preamps to go with that console and you'd have quite a system. That's like having a mini automated version of an API or Neve. Start saving those tips!

Got to have it!

Thanks Remy for the reply. That's just what I needed to know. It is just what I'm looking for in terms of getting alot (32 channels) of I/O into my Cubase. I'll have to find out more about it's latency in terms of DAW usage with VSTi's but otherwise it sounds like a winner. Thanks again.

Eric
