Hi all,

I'm dumping my 2 peavey studiomix's and looking for another way to control Cubase and/or SFP hands on. I heard rumours bout steinberg dumping support and production of the houston control, I don't know if this si true or not. Could some of you maybe confirm this?

Bout the houston: is it good value for money or just a waste of hard earned $$$? And most important why or why not, and are there better alternatives available at about the same price?

Hope some of you can help me out on this,

Greetz

I don't know Houston, so sorry...

But i know Radikal Technologies SAC 2.2, which is the controller which have the broadest support actually.

Support Logic, Cubase, Protools, DP, Live, Fruity, Creamware with many synth already configured, and a lot more.

Can also control up to 10 software at the same times (other don't at all). And a couple more features like this.

I think it's worth check closely...

Hi thx for the reply!

I had a look at the SAC controller allready, and I must say it looks very promising but it's almost double the price of a houston too. That's the main reason why I haven't bought it (yet).

Greetz and keep em coming!

Hi Valium,

I have tried many DAW controllers, and if your DAW software is Nuendo or Cubase, no doubt Houston is the choice rigth now. I don't have it myself, but I had it for a 3 months test period. It's no doubt the most complete and easy to use device. Anyway, I didn't bougth it, becource of bad build quality.

Rigth now I use CM automations Motormix. Nice faders, but I can't do much else than control volume.

Waiting for Steinberg ID...

just stumbled across this in a mag:
