Niche Automation products blow-out
For those needing a set of MIDI faders at a reasonable price, I'd
like to alert you all to a discontinued product blow-out on
audioMIDI.com.
http://www.audiomidi.com/common/cfm/product.cfm?Product_ID=1789
The Automation Station has sixteen 60mm MIDI faders, sixteen buttons,
and four MIDI rotary pots. All are programmable to a reasonable
extent.
The Automation Station was one of the first MIDI fader controllers
with more than eight faders. It was designed primarily to control the
8-channel Niche Audio Control Module (ACM). Both units have been out
of production for some years, and now the remaining stock is being
liquidated at $149.00 for either unit.
I already have a FaderMaster and a Peavey PC1600, and they're both
fine. The one thing I like about the Niche is that each of the
sixteen buttons has a status LED (with the PC1600 you can't visually
tell what state the buttons are in).
Be aware that you won't be able to do a bunch of fancy sysex
programming with this unit, but if you need to send a bunch of
controller messages this is a cost-effective solution.
