Thanks Albee and Pan, that helps a lot. A partial reason moving to HD is the parting of ways with the RME Fireface 802, which has a Totalmix (options/mixer) screen in which the 'options' screen in PT pales in comparison to, IMO.

While some people may 'get it,' with the RME, and the routing options are huge, the variables are sooo numerous on this unit that the learning curve has been a trial for me and others.

There are a llot of other good things about the unit (pres', etc.), don't get me wrong (had it for 6 years), but it's time to move on. Whatever the mountains to climb with HD are, I'll take them with readiness..
