Hi,
IMHO.
I'm far from a fan of B, but I think it's difficult today to launch a mixer module and be innovative and groundbreaking. A mixer, with faders, pan potentiometers, and mutes, doesn't give much room for innovation.
In this case, at least they have added the SOLO function. In my opinion, a very good feature.
I think this case is quite different from Abacus or Brains.
