That’s for returns tho, right? I think ppl here are asking for stereo SENDS.

Their mixer line in Eurorack seems to be very popular so they’re smart to explore the non-modular market. I expect that it will be pricey though and theres’s a lot of competition, although there’s no other desktop mixer that includes an analog multimode VCF so that will be a selling point for some.

I guess when people started “upgrading” channel strips to stereo, they forgot about the sends? i guess you could argue allot of pro studio gear is mono or dual channel, but the market this device is catering to seems more music and synths.. so stereo fx and stereo pedals etc..

That was last year at superbooth. They said they brought it back to the drawing board after feedback they received and it will be at superbooth again this year

Well the solution was always just to use two mono tracks panned L-R

Hardly rocket science

Seconded. People will argue that we don’t need stereo sends. Yes, we do!

That’s always my biggest gripe when it comes to hardware mixers… MONO sends!
I understand their purpose but with all the modern stereo effects, who wants to sum their stereo synth into mono for fx. Not me at least.
