Do Bears shit in the woods?
Hell yes it is worth the price. But you gotta think of it as a SUPER REMOTE. There is simply no other remote that offers more functionality. There are some that offer the same, but not more, at least none that I know of.
It can be a time clock master. It does track delay, deck offset, smpte offset, a bunch of midi clock stuff, tape pre-roll and post-roll, THE ALESIS DIGITAL I/O!!!, auto punching, saves ALL settings for every song, can store up to 20 songs, with 22 locate points per song and all other information for the song including midi map's and song name and locates, etc......
Dude, you are missing out on a world of features if you have two ADAT's and no BRC. Probably the best $1000 I spent on the studio.
