The Logic Off Topic list

hey LP,

The RME-Hammerfalls and MOTU 828mkII's are high on my wanted list. The
Onyxes look like they'd be an excellent cross-breed of analog mixer
and digital interface though. My one concern is that I'm not really
sure how the signal chain in the Onyx is laid out. They mention 2
outputs for monitoring, are those the only two outputs? That might be
a bit limiting for doing surround mixes.

anyway, these things are brand new and possibly not even available
yet. I was just hoping to drum up a bit of discussion about them as
they look like an intriguing bit of hardware.
