I would add that, right now I'm kinda in-different about the Apple/Logic Studio pricing. I agree with you that, perception in pro-audio is king. If something is sold cheap, then it must not be as good as the more expensive item. Think Paris vs Pro Tools circa 1999. But, I did think both Nuendo and Logic 7 was overpriced a tad. I'm glad I was an early adpoter of Nuendo and got for $600.00 back in 2001. But, if I'm honest iwould have to say that that app(Neundo) has paid for it's self hundreds times over. So, price is a realitive issue. I see you point. Just like the movie Predator vs Alien, I think we the consumers of pro-audio are caught up in a war between Apple and Microsoft(Digidesing). Yes. for all of you who don't know, microsoft is Advid's largest investor. Bailed them out back in 2002.. This war is going to get ugly. With blood (MOTU's Performer) becoming a scoring daw only. As well as, Roland's Cakewalk Sonar, and yes, even Yammmy's Steingberg. You know Digi is going to answer the bell, with a new LE/M-Powered say 128 track(64 stereo), with all the bells for $500.00 They have to at this point, or they will loose out to Apple. Yammy can make a big play by going after the Mid-pro market with a super cool DAW con

Very few companies jumped on board. Then, I read that Yammmy is offering it's SDK on Studio Connections. This is a disaster waiting to happen. I think they should forget about trying to get "everyone" on board WHY?? because Apple, Digi,Motu, Cakealk/Roland, will not adhere to another companies atempt to bring forth a new standard. What's wrong with Yamaha? Don't they have the where-with all to bring this product to fruition? Like Digi, Neundo customers want their very own version of D-Control and MC-5 not a science community project.. Not impressed at all.

The inserts on each channel should work as direct sends iirc, by just using one side of the stereo plug... it's unbalanced but that's OK. -- Martin Harrington Lend An Ear Sound Sydney, Australia 0414913247 From: "Ed" <askme@email.com> Subject: Paris and Behringer Mixer Date: Tuesday, 25 September 2007 12:53 AM Hey folks... does this sound ridiculous, or does it sound ok? I use to track/record straight from the instruments/micas to preamps and directly into my 8in cards. For the purpose of performing live, I recently purchased a behringer SL3242 (24 channel mixer) and I have the main outs going back into 2 channels on the mixer. If you are familiar with this mixer, there are no direct outs (like I am use to for multi-track recording) and I have to use the Sub 1 thru 4. I am so disappointed with the levels I could cry. Levels within the mixer are good, but what is going out the subs into Paris is so low. I have the sub levels almost max'd, but still I have to open each .paf file after recording and increase about 10db. Playback is ok... except again the levels I am sending to Paris. My question is... would it be inappropriate to put a 4 channel preamp between this mixer and Paris... I need better levels bad and I am getting desperate. I love this mixer except for this reason. I would have never purchased it if I knew it didn't have direct outs. I don't like the subgroup crap, but I have no choice but to use it... Has anyone else run into this kind of problem? Of course if I use a preamp between the mixer and Paris (on the 4 subgroups) I don't want to hurt my levels coming back into the mixer while I am recording. I am one of those all around performer... I do all the instruments... and my abilities are limited to only recording one at a time... lol. Any comments or suggestions... besides throwing away the mixer. Sorry but $600 is like Ft Knox to me... I am a peasant and that is many months of savings to me... Anyone?Was just there seconds ago looking at this because I need to import some Cubase SX3 and Nuendo audio into PARIS. See new thread on this for anyone wanting to share knowledge.
