    "Do you prefer using the steering wheel or the gear stick when you drive? and do you prefer using the accelerator or the brakes?"

    That analogy doesn't work.

    A Steering wheel control the direction of the vehicle, the gear stick controls the gearing. The accelerator and brakes are mirror opposites.

    They all control different tasks.

    The Cross Fader and Level Faders all do essentially the same task; attenuating dB level of an input.

    Thought thee were right clever, didnt tha?

    Do one!!

    Phonetically it would be something like...

    'Rate' or 'Rairt'

    My mate is over in Japan with me now. He is from Woodseats in Sheffield. I forgot how strong his accent was.

    I am loving it though. Its always amusing when the Americans meet the real deal and have to re-assess their ideas of what they think their ancestry to be in terms of character.

    He is going to get deported soon no doubt.

    Using a mixer is not unlike making love to a beautiful woman, you have to tweak all the right knobs and slide your fader up just far enough to get the best out of her, and remeber finger technique is everything.

    And inevitably it breaks down when you get carried away and you have to spend the next half-hour sorting it out while everyone else in the room stands around looking bored... I like the analogy :)
