I have been looking for a way to “touch” my DAW for years. The Avid ICON was terrific, but I couldn’t justify the price tag. So when the Slate Raven came out, I was intrigued, to say the least. I thought it might finally be the answer to doing multiple fader rides, and the idea of touching the plugins seemed pretty cool. I had a faderport one already, but it didn’t have all the features I was looking for.
I was one of the first to have the Slate Raven. I spent a lot of time trying to make it work for me, but in the end it just didn’t. I’ve since sold my raven and gotten the Softube Console 1 as well as a Presonus Faderport8. I couldn’t be more happy with my purchases. Check out the video below to hear about my up’s and down’s with the Raven, as well as how I came to the conclusion to get the console 1 and faderport8.

Hello Matty
the analogue way of mixing is a workflow developed over decades. Tactile knobs and faders hands on mixing. The digital era adds many extra’s automation, you can see a picture of your audio and loads of external gear has become internal software.The essence of the Audio-trade in my view is: Listening, recording, Editing , and then you are back to Listening to the finished product. Since audio recording started this has not changed only the tools have. As long as you are aware of this I don’t think it matters much what tools you use as long as you are comfortable with them. So your remarks and views are spot on.
Kind regards,
Lex Goode.
