Money permitting, I will. I just mixed with 8 channels of it and it made difference in punch, depth and tightness.

So, who’s getting one of these? If so, which one are you going for? I’m going all in! 32x4 |

I really like my Dangerous 2Bus+ and have had great results with it, but I can already see myself selling it for one of these. Good thing I am on the "early retirement plan" so I will have plenty of time to build it with loving care.

Good thing I am on the "early retirement plan" so I will have plenty of time to build it with loving care. I really like my 2Bus+ also until I heard the SumBus. I fortunately have had the opportunity to work with Jeff's beta model and it just spanks everything that I've ever used (2bus+, Inward Connections Mix690, Burl Vancouver,etc) I really can't wait for everyone to get the chance to start mixing through this thing. It just sounds like a record! I sold my 2bus+ a few weeks ago to make way for the production model which I anticipate being even better than the one I've been able to work with (if that's even possible). The difference between the SumBus and the 2bus+ is primarily in the bottom end and also how vocals just sit better. |

I have not done extensive market research but I think only Chandler does. Also the input transformers are followed by discrete opamps. |

No sir it does not. The “mojo” stuff happens with their Color circuits. Obviously a completely different box conceptually. I’d rather have the transformers and op amps doing their thing on a track by track or at least group basis instead of just on the whole mix. You can easily get that by strapping a VP28 across 2-mix. But as you well know, its a whole other ball game with transformers and op amps happening on every channel! |

So, who’s getting one of these? If so, which one are you going for? I'm in for the 8x2 SB2. Will need to expand my IO setup if I were to want any more. |

Decisions...Decisions, since I have 20 analog channels out do I go 16x2 or 24x2. This into my Silver Bullet for a little signal boost and EQ should be sweet.

You can always start with 16 and then add on.

Like I mentioned, I was really impressed with just 4 stereo outs. Can’t imagine having 16 of them.

So, who’s getting one of these? If so, which one are you going for? Im going all out. 32x4. Though might buy it in stages as you can add into it as its card based. Still, not gonna sell myself short. I know for sure my setup will be 30 ch of ML2s before the SumBus for my "mixer" setup. Should work out cool. Don’t believe the 2Bus+ has input transformers on every channel, right? I have not done extensive market research but I think only Chandler does. Also the input transformers are followed by discrete opamps. Juicy Photo on Instagram are really making me excited! |

And be a lot smaller! Plus budget friendly..ish. At least I can build over time. This winter will be fun! |

So, this has the option for 2 different/separate stereo outs, right? Is that just for the option of 2 different flavors/colors? Any other use for the 2nd pair of outs? Any major drawbacks of just sticking with a single pair of outs?

Any major drawbacks of just sticking with a single pair of outs? On the SB2 yes its just a different way to get a different flavor via different transformer and Opamps. On the SB1 though, you could use the second out as an EFX send since you have pan control and level control. Or even a headphone send if you wanted. Or totally different mix. |

Getting really excited for this to be available but wondering what kind of assembly documentation will be available for those of us who have good soldering experience and skills but work best with some kind of assembly instructions.

Jeff has always been very good at documentation and the group DIY threads useally answer most questions. |
