Hi Kevin, Its the avid s3 i wanna have, the s6 is far to expensive for me smiley. But, aint it a fact that all control services now adays work with the same protocol? Thats what I thought when it comes to 1 service for many apps, logic ProTools etc.
If you wanna send me off list, I would realy like to read your artikle. My children are in here, so Ive not the rest and piece to read it all now, but Iam very curious about this matter.
