Technology is an evil thing to those who refuse to come into the new world.
You refuse to say Hoster is a big jump from disc, but you use it.

Ok I will admit Hoster is a HUGE step above kj's that did not know how to run a disc based show. This I will give you! I could run a very smooth flowing show with discs & Hoster is actually not as fast as I could run a disc based show. I use Hoster & am willing to sacrifice that one limitation to gain the convenience - nothing more. It's a great program, I highly recommend it to others, my Dad even bought the entire suite for his own personal use (home only). I believe Hoster will address the issue eventually & then it will be completely on par with what I used to be able to do with discs, but at this time it isn't.

It doesn't mean a thing to me that you prefer the old stuff. I can also apreciate that and know that it works as i used it for years, all the things you listed, i have used for years. I for one will tell you that an "open ear" hears much better.

See you keep saying 'open ears', I don't know why you keep saying I don't, I have listened, tried, used the plastic speakers, out of all I have used the Mackie SRM450 is my favorite, but sound is completely subjective to each person. I have listened with 'open ears' & know what I like to hear.

Now having said all that, I must tell you that for you to refer that anything you have heard new and light is mediocre is a little insulting to one who prefers it over the old way.. I will put my sound against yours or anyboby else's and not worry one little iota. I guess thing are just a little above the rest of us in Tacoma.

Well sorry you feel that way! People around here are using the PEavey PR powered series quite a bit and these absolutely sound like crap! But then again, it's may be because many of the companies around here also don't know how to run sound.
