Come on keep it together, keep unity get Mixerman & Rail in the same room dont let anyone 'shy away' now because of test condition bickering... Hold a steady course..

Mixerman cannot make it Saturday and weekends in general. I'm awaiting his response on whether he can arrive with everything ready for him at 9pm sharp Friday night since we finally have a non-bumpable commitment from Sound City in Van Nuys.

I have offered to handle teardown so he can leave as soon as he's done. Hopefully he can do his part in 60-90 minutes and we can be finished with the debate one way or another.

OT: Lifted and stolen from another board...

3 engineers were on a flight from NY to LA. During the flight, talk turned to recording. Two of the guys were very pro PT. One was not. During the debate of PT vs analog, the analog fan got up to go to the restroom. The 2 PT engineers decided to teach the other guy a lesson. While he was gone, the 2 guys put pretzels in the shoes he had left under his seat. After a bit, he returned with drinks for everyone. Near the end of the flight, he discovered the trickery. Just before touchdown he remarked, "Allright, I love analog, you guys love PT, why can't we just get along and stop all this snacks in shoes and pissing in drinks?"

Heheh... exactly!!

That's the idea and I am out of luck with the RADAR. The plan was to put the tracks with various mixes (6-8 tracks)in input and take the mix we wanted to listen back to out of input. All tracks would be set out a pair of outputs and allow all the mixes to come out the same device, same outputs, same cables, same converters. Instead of DATs or CDs which would require a playback machine for each mix and a switch box pre converter.

Any one else have a device that will do this? I was told the MX-2424 will do it.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">And why is it that selecting the track outputs to AES on the RADAR won't work? Certainly, you'll have to change either the output cable connection or the source if you are listening back through a stereo DAC. I don't understand how switching the outputs in a prefs page would be too difficult. But do what works for you.

<<And why is it that selecting the track outputs to AES on the RADAR won't work? Certainly, you'll have to change either the output cable connection or the source if you are listening back through a stereo DAC. >>

I'm trying to find a solution with instantaneous switching of the mixes and the capability of continuous audio to give a more focused listening test. I can achieve this by putting tracks in and out of input. In other words-all the advantage of a multi source switcher box, yet having all mixes in one playback unit to eliminate variables in the test.

That's the goal. Any ideas?

(Obviously, MM has ruled out printing to anything but RADAR, or CD for his test. So if he can make it Friday night, it will most likely be CD. At this point, we would like him to show up. The MX-2424 is not important enough to blow his involvement.

But for other testing we may do, I'm still looking for another multitrack that might be "better" than an MX-2424.
