Hey congrats on finally getting yours. I’m really happy with mine.

Yeah, I wasn’t sure either, since I hadn’t registered it first, but it worked just fine.

Yes, no drivers or any hassle at all. I was thoroughly impressed how quickly it set up. Just follow the guide.

I will do some recording today to check the DSP mode But so far it is great.

Unfortunately I am still waiting on the custom built DB25 's I have coming, to get my other outboard Reverb and Compressor hardware units going, but will simply play with the plugins in the mean time .

I made my own. I’m stubborn, and a chronic DIYer. I have all my outboard gear, including 11R, all patched in through my patchbays. AND it sounds and feels just as good tracking through Eleven MKII, as through 11R.

I really think Avid hit a homer with this one. Up to 4 discrete HP mixes and dsp is huge for me. Plus, the damn thing sounds stellar!

Initial hiccups were addressed, completely, and extremely timely by Avid.
