Not sure if this has been covered or not but it does look interesting!

That does look interesting but I've never heard of the company. I hope others will chime in here.

These are exciting times in Pro Audio...

[Tom Burgess]

Wow, that does look slick.  If it sounds any good at all then it should be a clear winner or at least push some of the other companies to produce a similar product.  Remote adjustable input gain is cool, for sure. 

I suppose if it's just code then Soundcraft, Mackie, A&H, Yamaha, etc. could surely write something similar to be utilized with their gear?

[Bob Leonard]

The great thing about CPU based devices is of course the ability to perform a function based on the OS and applications written around that CPU. Soundcraft and some of the other more well known names use custom chips and their own code. Those companies using a proprietary architecture have designed their applications based on very specific factors and needs. This specific design usually leads to higher performance and better stability. compare Netware to Windows if you're familiar with both OS and you'll understand my point.

Regardless, it's great to see a company take advantage of off the shelf components and package them in an audio interface that can be used for more than porting data to your CPU based DAW. I particularly liked the idea using the interface for monitors and the low pricing. 

[Tommy Peel]

Pretty impressive. It's amazing what HTML5 can do now days; it looks like they got the interface down pretty good. You can play with the interface/software here; it's amazing how responsive it is, definitely one of the most responsive sites I've used. Like Tom said, if it sounds good it may be a clear winner. Judging by how well it works I'd say that HTML5 mixer interfaces may well be the future of digital mixers; no more proprietary apps, with HTML5 it'll work on the iPad just as well as it will on a Android or Windows tablet.

[Jerome Malsack]

Another advantage from the HTML is the screen space.  size you html on a 24 inch touch screen lets you run the power point and projections with running the sound. 

[Robert Patch]

That's amazing.  48 channels for less than the cost of an AR2412 stage box.  I'll be watching this one.  15 band GEQ's?  No LPF?  No PEQ on the AUX's?  I love the form though.

I've never heard of the company

SM Pro is typically associated with inexpensive 8-channel preamps, USB recording interfaces, etc.

[kristianjohnsen]

push some of the other companies to produce a similar product.  Remote adjustable input gain is cool, for sure. 

Does anyone know if the Peavey/Waves virtual mixer concept ever took to the air?

[John Roberts {JR}]

It looks like a nice browser based UI but the execution of the hardware it connects to matters also.

It could be a great steering wheel on a Yugo, or a Ferrari? Probably somewhere in-between. 

I'll wait for hand's on user reports.
