I'd love to get a Fantom XR though later this year, 6 SRX expansion slots is just a kick ass thing to have at your disposal with no contingencies on the old DAW.

I'm considering going mixerless, straight into my Delta 101LT and using my Mackie Control for tactile stuff. Part of me though is leanining toward dumping one pair of analog outs from each synth into my Yammy mixer and the others straight to the 1010, that way I can jam without the PC turned on if I wanna, and that's important.

Oh, an I just found a huge array of LED lights in all colors on eBAY. I'm thinking of rigging the under portion of the top shelf with green or blue LEDs, and then installing a thin piece of trim around the front + side edges of the main shelf to hide them a bit. It would look kick ass to have the whole setup glow like an alien microwave during midnight headphone jams...

LEDs or cold-cathodes would be cool (no pun), can imagine a nice glow emanating from underneath the shelves!

Mixerless is good, it's the way of the future. People will always have nice outboard gear, synths, effects and stuff that they need to plumb into their computers, so having soundcards with loads of inputs/outputs and using them as inputs or sends/returns or the like instead of a mixer is the holy grail. Bit like a mixer and patchbay all in one!

great thanks, just built a new computer, just need to replug and install everything and then it's a full assault! How's the missus and the sprog doing? Introduced your little'un to the world of sound mangling yet?
