Serana Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 Heya ^^I'm new here and at the moment still trying to digest the basics, but when looking around for designs to "borrow" I found this in the manual of the SSL Duality console (see attachment)So yeah ... a DIY project and a 275+k$ console share the same idea ... emulating the Mackie Controller ;DThis is a screenshot from the free downloadable PDF-manual, if this should violate the copyrights, please tell me.Yes, I download stuff like that all the time ... mmh ... I guess that explains why my HDDs are always full - Serena... great, first post and it's in the Off-Topic section, what a start -.- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cimo Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 hi and welcomeSo yeah ... a DIY project and a 275+k$ console share the same idea .you should see my budget for electronics for the last 6 months and my annual income !the reason why so many producers are using Mackie Control (Behringer as well) is that Mackie s released it, don t expect anything like that anymore though.Still waiting for somebody to crack the C4 (if this should violate the copyrights etc etc ::)simonePS: miscellaneous is the hype don t worry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screaming_Rabbit Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 So yeah ... a DIY project and a 275+k$ console share the same idea ... emulating the Mackie Controller ;D... this has nothing to do with budget but more with support.Specifying a new controller protocol is not so hard but time consuming (+implementation) = costs money.There already are two (three... if you call SlowTools "pro" :P) dedicated pro controller protocols:- EuCon (Euphonix)- Oasis (Merging)- DigiControl (Digidesign)Which one should SSL implement now? - Oasis can only be used for Pyramix, EuCon only for Nuendo and a few others and Digidesign don't even open up, cause they do everything to push customers to the world's worst DAW available (SlowTools).If SSL implements Oasis, it can only be used by Pyramix users. If they implement EuCon, they have to pay Euphonix a license fee, it can only be used by a few more systems than Oasis and they help Euphonix in bringing EuCon up to set the new standard... that's not what they want, believe me ;)So what language does every DAW understand?

Ashiman Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 someone opened the SSL cough* rebadged soundscape cough* ADA converter and found there njm 4580 opamps . Cost cents in quantity. Same song with multi channel motu converters. SSL duende I consider that one a joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
