hi there.
 
well as I've been confortable with m-audio equipment for a good long time,  
I've always found it consistent through and through. always been happy with the 
 audio quality and handling. tested and used a tascam fw1884 on location and 
just  hated it after 2 hours. its handling, the feel of the fader movements, 
the  stability and its quirks with jaws were enough to make me wanna throw it 
off  stage so some random person could walk off with it hahahaha lol.
 
the project mix I/O is so comfortable for me to use and I love the fact  that 
I can just use all inputs at once with no issues. I'm so pleased that they  
cane out with this system.
 
what I'd love to see is a full 24 channel version of this (25 motorised  
faders, 24 line ins and xlrs with individual phantom power. all the usuals from 
 
the project mix I/O. now that would make me seriously happy for work so I could 
 take my laptop out to a gig and do professional 24 channel stage work rather 
 than taking my tower out.
 
M-Audio have been very supportive with me when I built my pro audio system  
(tower). I went for 3 M-audio delta 1010 rack cards and a delta 2496 for jaws  
alone. got everything configured and built my stage looms for the rig. use a  
behringer MX9000 console and love it to bits. I wouldnt touch a mackie 24-8 
desk  if you payed me. used to use one at work and hated it so much. if someone 
made a  console which felt great to work with, was easy enough to rig and had 
inbuilt VU  rather than the mackie's detachable seperately sold meterbridge. 
now thats not  for my use but for a client who would want to see what's going 
on. after all I  work for fully sighted and V.I clients
 
Am toying with buying a yamaha O1X console as well for certain work mainly  
to go with my yamaha motif ES8 and the mlan card and have tested the O1X and  
just fell in love with it. so thats next in my toolkit.
