Going back to analog - partly...

[F5D]

Well, I've been thinking about this too sometimes but I still wouldn't ditch the computer. I've been checking out the motu 24 i/o too. Some people say that motu are no good but I've used my 828 mk2 for many years now and imo there's nothing in the sound why wouldn't I use one. At least when you want to use 24 channels, the motu is the cheapest and still good enough quality solution I guess. If you want RME, the price will be ridiculous, over 4k.

However, altough I used an analog console to mix, I would probably mix in the box too, for example if I want to use busses and use plugins for them. I would probably direct my busses to the desk for the final mix. I use lots of mix busses so the 24 channels would all be in use.
