FaderPort 8 and FaderPort 16 General Discussion

Ok, Studio One peeps, quiz me this:

I look at the Faderports 8/16 and wonder what real advantage do they have over the RC app for my ipad? Have searched high and low for a comparison but find nothing to help me decide whether the Faderport would provide enough of an advantage over the app to justify the expense.

I am predominately a one man operation using virtual instruments and occasional live vocal/guitar and do all my mixing in the box.

I own a Faderport Classic that I don't use and a Soundcraft Signature 12 that works but takes up too much space.

So... can you help a fella out?

It all depends on whether you like easy access to real motorized faders, knobs and buttons etc. instead of a touchscreen that requires toggling multiple screens to control Studio One. The fact that you no longer use the Faderport Classic may indicate it's not a requirement for you. A Faderport 8 (12" x 13") will take up similar space as your Soundcraft Signature 12 (15" x 15") and a Faderport 16 is about 12" x 20". Neither provides I/O so you'll still need an audio interface or a StudioLive SIII console that provides both I/O and DAW control for Studio One. The ioStation 24c is also a good choice if you're looking for a control surface with a small footprint and don't need lots of I/O channels.

PLEASE ADD YOUR SYSTEM SPECS TO YOUR SIGNATURE.
