BlankI wouldn't have thought so.  They are nice mixers and the sound that you 
track with, should have a bit of warmth to it, as your using an analog mixer.

  I have an alan and heath mix wizard 3, which has gotten pretty high reviews. 
I'm just wondering though if you actually lose a bit of quality when converting 
midi of an external synth to audio, as opposed to when just bouncing or 
freezing a vst synth?

    Yes.  Mind you, I don't know which mixer you have so, can't comment on 
whether it has excellent pree-amps or, not.

      Phil, when you say pre amps, do you mean external ones besides the actual 
ones within the mixer that I am using?

      Thanks.

        Hmm, maybe as your keeping all of your software synthes/samples 
internal to Sonar.  On the other hand, if you had some really hi end pree-amps 
that you could use with your hardware then, you would find that your hardware 
would sound fatter and have more detail too!

          Hello,

          I notice when I use vsts, or samples via the sfz in sonar, I actually 
get fatter, warmer, and louder recordings than when using tracks from an 
external synth like the motif. Is this generally the case, or am I imagining 
things here.
