But a definite deal breaker is the 2 channels. On your site you dicuss this, and I realize there is little reverb, but surround sound channels are not for reverb, they are for adding double the sampled sound output (a rear 8't flute C and a front 8't flute C then get 2 different wav files from 2 unique recordings) and for immersing you in sound. I can see that a slider/perspective mixer is pointless, but not surround. Just my opinion.
The problem is, there really wasn't any discernible gain to be had - I have some surround sets, so I know the "feel" you get from that.... you really do't get that "feel" - all it did was add some reverb. You might still disagree, and that is OK - you are certainly welcome to your convictions
My call was that it simply wasn't worth double the work and time - the difference wasn't enough to convince me. I've priced it lower than I would if it were surround in deference to that fact.
Now, having said that, I do have a couple of projects I'm negotiating that have much more live acoustics, and hence would do surround on those, for sure.
