I have a Spirit folio SX and am looking at getting replacing it as I have run out of inputs. I am looking at a Spirit Ghost. Or should I go digital ? ie the Yamaha 03V. My current setup has a JV1080, ESI 4000, SW1000 (PC), CS1X, EA1, CZ101 and all audio is taken care of by a terratec EWS88MT audio card. The PC is running Logic audio.
My Outboards include an Alesis compresor (noisey or what) Lexicon MPX100 and a Zoom 2000.
Im producing UK Garage / RnB.

How would an 03V improve anything.

Am I talking shit or what ?????




Thanks

I am currently in the market for a digital 8-bus mixer. One of the things that turned me off to the Yamaha offerings is that they don't offer many really good possibilities for integration with a lot of outboard processors. I have some good quality outboard FX, don't really need more (well...), and the Yamaha makes it difficult to add these seamlessly into the mix without sacrificing something.

Yeah, the 01v isn't as well endowed with I/O as I'd have liked. There's no send/return pairs... You can use the 4 aux sends and bring the returns back through the channels, or you could get the analog expansion - since you don't get full EQ and dynamics on those channels they make great returns. But you're right, if you use a lot of outboard you'll eventually wind up short on I/O with an 01V. It'd also be nice if it could handle digital ins on all channels - 24 channels of all-digital hardware mixing. Fully automatible.

But that's not really the 01v's cup of tea. It's more of a nice all in one box with a limited set of versatile, reconfigurable I/O options. If you want something more serious then I guess you need an 03D or 02R.
