Hosts & Applications (Sequencers, DAWs, Audio Editors, etc.) • Re: Digital Performer users, I want you to convince me to switch to your DAW.

(By the way, why can't I rename channels in the mixer-view in DP?)

You can, with option/alt click.

Thanks for the tip.

I'm on the fence with this one. Every solution to bussing in a DAW is inherently not like a mixer...

Except in Reason, where it is EXACTLY like a real mixer. The only difference is that you can add as much mixer channels as you need, while hardware is obviously fixed. But all the connections to the mixer and between mixer channels (like buses and mults) are cabled just like in hardware. The only exception in Reason is with audio tracks, which are directly connected to a mixer channel without (virtual) cables.

This also means that you can setup complex routings like with a real hardware mixing desk, that are near impossible in any other DAW. There are even several Rack Extensions that play into these possibilities.

... but I don't really think automagically routing things is more intuitive.

In Reason, the auto-routing is just so you don't have to plug those (virtual) cables yourself. But everything is freely pluggable as you like anyway.

Oh and tomorrow's webinar on Voice Processing at 9:30 PST is more or less on this subject, if you can make it, Matt from MOTU answers questions at the end. They publish the recording for a day or two on Facebook as well.

Thanks for the heads-up, I'll try to watch when they post it on FB.
