This IS the Avid L2: Re: [Avid-L2] New Mixing Board needed

I'm with mark on this. I have a mixer in my room but have moved almost completely to a USB monitoring solution. The mixer was great when I cut mostly with the desktop machine, but I've been editing 90% on a laptop for the last six months - year really- and USB works great

I think I'll reiterate again: why mixer? Why not something like Central Station or Big Knob? These things take up less space and are more suited for the job. I removed mixers from all edit rooms here and replaced with these, and everyone is happy.

Jim,

Tree Audio for $25,000? SOLD! I'll Take 2!

Seriously, thanks for the Allen & Heath line info. I wasn't aware of them.

Sound craft’s stuff is nice these days. Maybe also give the Allen&Heath ZED line a listen:

Nice simple mixers with good sound at good prices.

Or maybe the compact 8-channel Roots mixer from Tree Audio. Retro-modern. Under $25,000. :-)

>> Hey all. My M-Audio speakers finally gave up the ghost and I'm upgrading to something with balanced audio inputs. But of course now I'm going to need a a decent mixing board for them. Nothing huge, this is strictly for my home editing setup and I haven't worked from there in 6 months.
