Hi Joeb - that's what I've been told (both by folks on here and the guys at Robotspeak in SF) and it's why I got my Level Pilot.  Also, that seems to make intuitive sense to me.

Thanks, I'm gonna put one on my wish list.
I'm surprised that the main audio interface manufacturers (like Focusrite) use  digital volume control.

  I have a Focusrite Pro40. Maybe someone that knows can answer this question.
  I been told that the volume control on the Pro 40 reduces volume digitally, which reduces bit depth and an analog volume control will reduce volume without reducing bit depth.
  Is this true and if so, would it be noticeable.
  ( sorry if I'm hijacking this thread)

I also wonder about that.  Anyway, can't beat the price on the LP and if that's all you need it fits the bill nicely.  Cheers.

I have a JBL speaker system that includes an MSC1 controller. It comes with software and a RMC mic (Room mode correction) for setting the eq in a room. You can set levels on a virtual version on the computer or on the hardware, your choice.

It can select between 3 stereo inputs, 2 stereo outputs with a sub on one of the outputs. Headphone out, manual eq controls, input gain/trim control. Etc.

I also use the JBL MSC1, just installed it yesterday actually. Followed the steps with the included mic and ran the room correction procedure. It said it found 8 resonances in my room. I guess I'll find out if it works or not when I do my next mix.
  So far seems to be a good unit, lot's of ins and outs like Mudgel said.

Stand alone 3 channel monitor controller with active crossover and remote came with my interface.
 
Still loving it after 5 years.

I use the ARC2 system with my Adam Ax7's, and Auralex in strategic locations.

I came really close to buying that TC interface when I bought the Pro 40.
Focusrite one the popularity contest.
The TC Electronics BMC-2 looks awesome but a bit pricey. I wonder if there's a noticeable difference between the converters in the Focusrite vs. this.
I never see TC stuff in the local music stores.
