Yeah that would make life a lot easier :P One day dammit, I’ll have the coin to get me a good mixer, if not the v studio 700.

Cheers for the info.

If you bussed your instruments to 8 channels, you could control the whole mix across 8 faders. Or if your intro/outro only has 8 distinct channels, bam you can fade-in/-out once through and analog (ie., with human instead of quantized sound) rather than program automations with a mouse one at a time. But I usually only do about 4 automations at a time myself. I'll go through and do one drum automation across 4 channels then come back for instruments. Four fingers per …

You can only automate a single fader at a time with a mouse, but with a console you can, obviously, fade at least 8 channels at once. You can also mute channels with your left hand while you still use the mouse to adjust something on screen, etc. I use a BCF-2000 in my studio for transport and mix control and it has cut my production time in half. Without it I'd be doing alot of stuff one item at a time. The issue is more …

I've recorded at a studio around the corner from where I live. The guy uses logic, but sometimes he routes all his faders out into his huge mitsubishi analogue console because he finds it easier and quicker to mix. But you are probably right with old school guys. Some aren't so great with computers. I think with fading …

I think the hardware is for oldschool folks who just aren't used to using Software for everything. Muting and fading in tracks takes seconds with mouse clicks. As do the other things demonstrated in this video. It is a different (and more expensive) way of doing things in Sonar, not a better way. Hmm… I don’t …
