<DIV><SPAN class=569233719-21032006><FONT face=Arial size=2>OK, still trying to
get together specs for my live digital recording setup... I've got
most of the hardware I need figured out, but I'm still stuck on choosing a
control surface. I'm going to be recording live shows so I'd like to have
some type of physical control surface other than a mouse/trackball and
keyboard.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=569233719-21032006><FONT face=Arial size=2>I did glance through
the archives, but didn't find anything so I hope I'm not repeating this
question, but here goes.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=569233719-21032006><FONT face=Arial size=2>If you are using an
external control surface, what do you use? An analog mixer with sends
to the converters? Or a midi control surface controlling Ardour
directly? Is the midi scenario even possible or has it been done by anyone
on the list?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=569233719-21032006><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've read up a bit
on the midi controllers, and that would be pretty cool to get it one working
with Ardour, but the analog board opens up more hardware monitoring possiblities
and also could act as an emergency backup incase of a problem with the digital
setup...</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
