Hi,
Setting up the EQ gain was one of those aux button page functions. I had no
problems with the MIDI on the unit I tried, so suspect that Gudrun may have
a fault on hers. I didn't try the scrubbing because I'm using Sonar and I
know it's rubbish anyway.
The nearest I've found to a credible alternative for my needs is a Tascam
US2400 and the new Saffire 28 IO, but this works out at about half as much
again price-wise. I think the Project Mix is a great bit of kit that just
misses the mark by a fraction..
Cheers.
Tim

Well, I noticed a couple of other things too. The scrubbing doesn't work
really, not nearly as well as it does with the frontier transport. And in
all of the alt configurations, I nefver saw where you could adjust the gain
of the four bans of eq. And of course there is the problem with the midi
input. It didn't work when I tried installing Gudrun's on my laptop either.
It was as if some buffer was getting overloaded, and we were using a good
Kurzwiel keyboard with it. I did get the feeling that the mic pre's were
quite good, and you could get the latency down really low.
