Hi,
Mainly, I want it to be slightly future-proof. I mean to record
multiple signals into my DAW of choice, that could either be Sonar or
Reaper. Therefore, controlling my DAW won't really enter into it, I
want enough inputs and outputs as well as the flexibility to mix these
into a variety of configurations, for example recording multiple
instruments but also routing a vocal track through an external
hardware effect and getting the processed signal back etc.
Things like FX on the console itself aren't really necessary, nice
gimmick if there but not a requirement by a long shot.
I currently use a Scarlett 2i4 as an audio interface, I plan to send
the main outs of whatever mixing console through that into my pc. If
you are of the opinion that taking out hte middle man and just getting
an interface with more ins and outs coupled with software-based mixing
is a better alternative, I am willing to look into that. I just
assumed doing this on the hardware level would be slightly more
accessible and would still work if a script suddenly decides to go
wonky for whatever reason.
