Don’t get me wrong, we are not considering ditching digital audio workstations, far from it, but this piece from NPR reminded me why I’m proud to approach digital audio from an analog mindset. When it comes down to it, our minds are analog (and our hearts and souls definitely are, but that’s another story), so the more you can do to bridge that gap between you and digital technology, the better. For me, it’s control surfaces, and the more they resemble an old school, in-line console, the better.
