Steinberg Control Surface

To me there are a few things that I don’t like with Raven.

  • Touch and not tactile. Pretty self explanatory.
  • A software layer above software. This and;
  • A proprietary uncommon hardware means more points of failure and possibly slower to get back to work if it fails.
  • I found it sluggish when I tried it. Supposedly the firmware got better, so maybe it’s fine now.
  • For serious audio-post editing it’s going to be almost useless for any long session.
  • I trust Steven (Slate) as far as I can throw him. He’s a salesman first and foremost and in my experience has made misleading claims about his hardware. So… I’ve bought none of his stuff.
