i think thats what was alluded to earlier (DSP sidechain)
in the discussion of pwm compressors ( crane song trakker is one ex. ??)

Regarding the AD/DA, I see many audiophile DACs but not many ADs. And none which seem to go to AES in a modular system. I would imagine an IJR ADDA system would be more affordable than something like a Lynx Aurora and sound as good.

ryansteele said:how about some sort of audio router device? relay based, 48 analog channels, could also route a few spdif or aes channels. controllable via usb and a little app/plugin, or even via ethernet and a webpage. basically a super patchbay, no patch cables required, just a matrix on your screen.
now that i think about it, im sure this exists.

That does exist:

It's $2095 and only gives you 8 channels.
Instead of using relays, they're using Multiplexers.
For a balanced 8 channel unit, you'd need something like 56 DPDT relays—or 64 if you want an "off" position for each channel.
48 channel, and then you're talking about thousands of relays!
Unless there's a better way to do it that I'm not thinking about. ?
lofi said:all the decent audio gear we clone is old and pretty simple, just very very good at their one little action.
cant we just go for a knockout simple piece rather than some 'look at me, I'm reet hard to make' piece?
then build the next knockout piece thats in perfect balance with it etc.

I vote for another classic Eq or comp. *cough* 550b *cough*.

vintage console sound very good but also noise level is not low
then why not :
Control a channel input mute of mixing desk or summ unit
(as in some old desk like soundcraft ghost , soundtracs megas , ecc..)
with remote control by midi ,
this channel mute by midi is very good for keep cleaned the master buss of mixing console
from "white/pink" noises and remove load from channels that don't sound alternatively
in some part of song ,
then as in old console the channel mute function can be set by patches/scenes
then stored into a rom memory bank , any bank (A,B,C,D or 1,2,3,4...)
with 100/128 memory locations each.
and simply backupped by midi esclusive beckup/restore command
into a midi sequencer track (as for sound patches of midi sound expanders/keybord)
then remain stored togheter all other s audio/midi tracks
inside any pro tools,logic,cubase song/session
This project require a mute circuit card for any input channel (a relay can do this?)
and a "control center" board for store and recall mute patches/scenes
and drive all input channel circuit cards.
Any info , scheme , picture and suggestion about is wellcome,
thanks in advance to anyone give help or discuss in this thread,
