thanks brad for keeping an eye on this. i was "away from my desk" for a day or two and all hell broke loose.
i'm taking the good advice on ditching this thread and starting a new discusion thread....whoever said that, thanks, my mind was swimming with the insane things being said.
pg666 is perfectly fine in his posts, he's been on these forums a LONG TIME and knows his way around.
oddly enough, i think some good has come of all this.
there is little point in addressing the vast majority of comments by vlad and others, i would like to just mention this strctly from the stand point of "validity".

What can you do with 12 tracks all full of saturation? Drums recorded on 2 tracks. Such song can be mixed in 10 minutes.

Elivs and James Brown (to mention only two) seemed to do just fine gong live to MONO!!!!!!!!
the beatles didn't seem to do too badly with mono drums, nor did Motown records. led zep didn't seem to suffer too greatly from only three drum tracks on certain records
and i'm sure many artists would have killed for 12 tracks.
what is wrong with doing a mix in 10 minutes?
