Dave Bryce Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Just bought one. Hope to see it before the weekend. Any owners/users here? dB Quote ==> David Bryce Music • Funky Young Monks <== Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KuruPrionz Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 A TV with the DAW Channel!!!! I want one!!!!!!! Those TV pots will never get scratchy, awesome. I bet it will be just about the funnest way to record. You can do a live mix. Quote It took a chunk of my life to get here and I am still not sure where "here" is.

Mike Rivers Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 A friend who worked on the audio portion of the Raven (or maybe it was the model before that) described it as a "big iPad."

That's pretty much how most folks describe it. Got any first hand experience with it, brother Mike? dB Quote ==> David Bryce Music • Funky Young Monks <== Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Rivers Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Got any first hand experience with it, brother Mike? dB Nope. I'm the guy who doesn't like to use computers, remember? But at one time I said that I would consider mixing on a computer if I had a monitor as big as my console. Now I can get one that size, and pretty cheap, too, but then I'd have to get rid of the console to make room for it. I've looked it over at the trade shows, but I'm just not enough interested in working that way to dig very deeply into it. I know that it's more than an iPad, and that it provides a lot of shortcuts to tracking and mixing, but since nearly all the recording work that I do nowadays (and darn little of it) is live either to multitrack or to two-track, I just don't have need for hundreds of plug-ins a finger-flick away. And I think that's where most of the Raven's strength lies. At least that's probably would get most of the use from me if I had a use for the use. I'm fixing up a Mackie d8b now. I never really warmed up to it while I was at Mackie (though I had one on my desk) but the thing that it has over today's modestly priced digital consoles from PreSonus or Allen & Heath is that it was designed by people who did recording, as a recording console. Today's small and medium format digital consoles are really great for live sound, but you have to use a computer and DAW as your recorder. You youngsters have all the fun nowadays. Hope the Raven works out well for you. Quote For a good time call http://mikeriversaudio.wordpress.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Bryce Posted February 27, 2021 Author Share Posted February 27, 2021 For me it's mostly about the configurable workflow. Pretty damn high resolution on the knobs and faders with this thing as well. My favorite thing about the plug-ins is not the access to lots of them as much as it is an interface where you can get pretty close to the experience of actually turning the knobs and flicking the switches. MUCH cooler than mouse control. dB Quote ==> David Bryce Music • Funky Young Monks <== Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
