Hi.

A co ntrol surface allows you to take control of your soft synths, the sonar 
track view and other midi parameters etc.

A mixer is simply a way to route your audio.

I use a Novation Remote SL MK II, which is a keyboard with a control surface.

There's a keyboardless version too but I can't remember its model number.

Cheers
Darren

  Subject: [ddots-l] question on control surfaces


  hi all. i want to buy a good control surface. what do people on this list 
use? i don't need something with many channels. 8 channels will be sufficient. 
And one other question. what is the difference between a mixer and a control 
surface? i am a little confused because it seems both performs the same 
function? i'm probably missing something haha that's why i ask.

  kind regards
