Re: We\'ve got one.

Me and my newest acquisition? HUH?

My point has always remained the same...this product is not aimed at home studios looking for ProControl 2 or Control24 2. It is a serious product for the...

Re: We\'ve got one.

Kriz,

I'm glad to see that you're coming around finally. Your sentence there supports very nicely the position I have taken in every single exchange with you...that the Icon, contrary to your...

Re: EGGHEAD

Grivel,

I figured that even having Phil Ramone would not impress you. I'll let you know when David Hasselhoff or Right Said Fred gets up on the Icon. Keep coming up with those four-on-the-floor...

Re: We\'ve got one.

Harold,

How dare you jump in to say good things about the Icon. After all, Grivel, Wolfgang and Henchman have all put their two lousy cents in on what a misguided product that thing is. ...

Re: Works

Grivel,

In the music studios, I think we WILL see studios who were previously thinking about SSL's choosing Icons instead. The main reasons for this would be:

1) SSL market is vastly...

Re: Still sucks?

Henchman,

Early adopters of most technologies help to pay for the R&D of said technology. Take flat screen computer monitors. When first introduced, they might have cost 5x the equivalent CRT...

yes, I totally agree that SSL makes absolutely first rate industrial products. Great, great stuff in terms of its design and build quality.

I have only seen the Icon at trade shows, and...

Re: Still sucks?

Uno,

In your opinion, what's 'wrong' with the Icon? What should Digi have released which would be a better product?

In regards to splitting out BGV's for instance...if you seem to want more high end on just the low voices to make them cut more, and if you're going to do the blend ITB, then you're going to...

First off, I apologize for misunderstanding the intent of your statement. My bad. My misinterpretation was unintentional.

Good post. A couple of thoughts for both of you guys. My main point about studios is that, while I totally foresee a total shakedown of the industry (as should have happened years ago...

Re: Bias

It's interesting to see how differently we view these issues. You have stated that the project studio is becoming the professional studio. Well, yes and no. Will some project studios...

Re: Bias

Well, the Icon is clearly aimed at the professional studio environments, rather than the project studios. Not only in size, but most project studio owners are not the guys dropping $100K on SSL's...

And that's the point, isn't it? CONVENIENCE. That's what the entire DAW generation is built upon. None of us are using DAW technology because of its sound advantages over analog. SSL's...

I disagree. I think you'd be surprised how many of the top flight engineers are using both "real outboard" and plug-ins. LOTS. If someone is working on an Icon and wishes to use a hardware...

Re: D-Control--Why so large?

Kriz,

What I find strange about the AWS is the lack of analog automation for mixing/summing purposes. In other words, in addition to using the desk as a "front end", why not have the full ability...
