Re: Yamaha 01V

[Tony Moore <tony-moore@juno.com>]

i think you mentioned in your original post that you planned on using the
01v as a front end to a daw. do you plan on using th 01v to mix your
recordings as well? i've owned an 01v and an 02r and wasn't impressed by
either's converters, eq, or dynamics. i did like the automation, but if
you're going the daw route, all that's a bit redundant as you have a
myriad of options via software (and as big a screen as you can afford
:-).  you can buy alot better converters and pre's than the 01v provides.
 digital mixers are already becoming old news as daw's and their
components come down in price. 

good luck!
