Well presumably you can map usual transport controls to that user definable touch strip. Which would do in a pinch but I wish they would do a transport add on with real buttons, real knob and counter display. The Artist transport is close but its transport buttons are just awful (IMNSHO). I can understand Avid needing to keep the same plastic for the S3L and S3 but would have liked an add-on transport control. And I'm just not getting the AVB interface and preamps is going to be any use to anybody. Might have been nice to have gutted that and reduced cost. OTOH I am guessing long term that Avid may seriously go AVB, and if so then begin able to (possibly) aggregate two extra compact channels/preamps in the control room might be more handy.
