Re: Anyone using the JBL MSC1 Monitor System Controller
I'm using neither, but must note that the KRK box provides digital in, avoiding the extra round of AD and DA conversion the JBL box imposes. I believe the KRK box uses a much more sophisticated process as well, but it also costs twice as much!

Re: Anyone using the JBL MSC1 Monitor System Controller
Not now, but planning to get it soon. Already have JBL 2325P monitors, so I'll get the rebate. (See the jblpro website).
NOTE though, that at this time the software is (gasp!) Windows only. Works for me, I have one machine with a BootCamp partition. They're saying mid-Spring for our version.

Re: Anyone using the JBL MSC1 Monitor System Controller
i was going to buy the 2300 package with the sub and the msc1 but the sales rep at sweetwater talked me into the lsr 4328 instead with the built in rmc, anyone have any experience with these monitors ? are they better quality then the 2300 series?

Run them off the digital ins and you avoid the extra AD - DA.

Re: Anyone using the JBL MSC1 Monitor System Controller
Cool I am excited to get them !!!!
Re: Anyone using the JBL MSC1 Monitor System Controller
I´m considering this system for a 5.1 setup, I know this is a "personal" opinion I´asking here, but in Spain the chances of having a demo are very rare, so I´m waiting to find a studio which owns them to check them out.midilance wrote: I love mine (LSR 4328P). Easy setup and forget about it.
I´d thank you if you took some time to comment a bit your experience with them.
Do you know if the software allows for a mixed 4328 and 4326 setup (front/rear) in a 5.1 setup? I couldn´t find any reference in the manuals to it.

Re: Anyone using the JBL MSC1 Monitor System Controller
I don't know about mixing two different models. You should email JBL and I'm sure they'd tell you. Possibly Sweetwater could also.

Re: Anyone using the JBL MSC1 Monitor System Controller
It's my second bedroom. A home studio. Big enough though so that the 8" woofer model makes more sense. I'm not using a sub.
