I don't understand how you connect such mixer via ethernet? I receive my internet via ethernet! c'mon now, how about USB, or FIREWIRE?

[SoundDevicesTV]

@lentejTV9 It's the ethernet connectivity that allows you to control multiple DAW's on separate computers from the one control surface. It works best through a hub anyway, so there's no problem with keeping your computer connected to the internet.

[SoundDevicesTV]

Yep! There'd certainly be nothing wrong with the first option. It's all great gear, just less consolidated than the Nucleus.

This would be perfect for my project studio if it had the Ques and other knobs of SSL controls on the console.

[SoundDevicesTV]

@BOSSCLASSMUSIC Accessing Aux-Sends and EQ functions is actually pretty easy if you're sticking to control of on-screen functions. If you're talking about analog Q-Sends etc. then that wasn't SSL's aim with the Nucleus. They wanted to make a control surface with integrated audio interface. The Matrix is their control surface / analog mixer and it has those kinds of functions in analog. Also an amazing bit of gear!

best demo ive seen yet thanks

[SoundDevicesTV]

@rob8ken Thanks very much!  Glad we can help out.

[eerereps]

i think i'd have the 1st option!!!

[BOSSCLASSMUSIC]

@SoundDevicesTV because without the Q-Sends & Talkback feature it makes us that own Apogee Symphony's, Orpheus's or other HQ Pre-Amps & Converters think "Why do I need another pre-amp? I could save money if I just bought a basic digital mixer w/ motorized faders and SSL plug-ins." Unless a person just wants the Analog SSL sound.

[BOSSCLASSMUSIC]

@SoundDevicesTV yep, I was talking about analog Q-sends. In my humble opinion, the Nucleus is a SuperAnalogue based pre-amp w/ faders and the Matrix (to me) is a overpriced midi controller.

Don't get me wrong, I've read great things about the Nucleus and am still considering buying one; however, the Nucleus should have the Q-sends and talk-back of the X-Desk and Matrix, that would make it perfect.
