the one bummer about mixing ITB with mix+ is you don't get any delay compensation, and i've noticed on my HD rig that it makes a HUGE difference in the drums. just keep an eye on it. |

Why would the LE rig sound better? |

Floating point, perhaps? But also comparing the higher sample-rate + converters compared to the old Mix system, along with the new mixing engine. |

ADC is HD only, the mix cards don't have enough power to handle it. |

The conversion and the mix engine would be the reason for me for going LE and not Mix. I had forgotten about the better conversion though, so that would change the equation somewhat.
The amount of power used by the mix engine increases when you turn ADC on. And the chips have a name associated with it. Even if the CPU is involved, the delay times will come from the TDM buss as that's where the mix engine and some of the plug-in times are coming from. Even RTAS processed channels will go back into the TDM buss for summing. You're very right about the redundancy though. |

There is no reason why ADC could not be added to both PT LE and PT Mix systems other than marketing reasons. |

ADC is one of the carrots to get users to buy an HD system. Maybe that's why turning it on uses up chips on the cards? |
