[VIDEO] Eucon vs Command8 fader stability test

[tamasdragon]

The question is really whether it's audible or not. I've been mixing on the S6 for a few months now, and never had a problem with automation resolution.

I am actually getting Pro Control while I wait for a good offer for D-Command. I've had it with Artist Series. Only Artist Control with its soft keys has some functional value to me, but well serviced Pro Control for $500 will eat it. And D-Command can be grabbed for $3500 these days.

Perhaps Eucon will catch up in 5 or 10 years time in stability to Digidesign consoles. I'll wait and see.

Unfortunately, the Pro Control won't work after ProTools 10.

I think in most situations it's not going to be noticeable.

Probably not audible for most fader moves, but protools automation is inaccurate in general. I've found that sometimes my eucon automation feels a bit slow when writing. Word to word automation often requires several passes. I find it more problematic on the artist series than on the S6.
