Synchron vs Studio in MIR 3D

[Bill]

Since MIR is on sale, and I have both Synchron and Studio series, I'm wondering about the comparison here.

The Synchron series is not set up for MIR the way the Studio series is. In Studio the Synchron Player has a "MIR unprocessed" mixing preset. Select it, then route to MIR and you're good to go. The Synchron series have no way that I know of to turn off the baked-in mix. You can adjust it, but you can't remove it.

So if your goal is MIR, go with Studio series.

@Bill - it's like @DaddyO wrote.

To borrow a comparison from the world of clothing: When it comes to orchestra seating and halls, Synchron Instruments are Prêt-à-porter, while Studio Series is for tailor-made solutions. 😊 Both have their specific values and idiosyncrasies.

Thanks you both. Any difference in sonic quality?

Pretty different on a conceptual level, but both concepts adhere to the highest technical and musical standards.
