I have been spending a considerable amount of time learning/creating the best techniques for using SAC as a front end to SAW for multi-track recording, overdubbing and mixing. My ultimate intent is to eliminate my huge studio console and replace it with this setup.

So far, I've got three scenes set up to accomplish my goal. I've been tinkering with it in the house with my laptop, but will soon test it with an actual full band in the studio.

But I wanted to make this point: Bob has anticipated SO many potential use scenarios in SAC (and SAW) that I'm totally in awe of his foresight. Every time I think "now how can I make THIS work?" I find that Bob has given me a route to a solution. SAC is so "deep" that I realize I was just scratching the surface when I used it only for live mixing.

I'm sure I'll run into more obstacles as I continue, but am totally confident that a solution will present itself with further study.

So I say THANK YOU BOB for creating the powerful combination of SAW and SAC.

... and Happy New Year to all.
