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.

Good Luck with your sound and show (and i hope your back holds out)
