Winner chicken dinner!
What is it that is keeping ITB summing from being as good as OTB? Will higher bit depths help? Higher sample rates? When everything goes 64-bit will audio be 64-bit too and will this help? I bet 64-bit audio would sound awesome.
 
I like ITB summing myself... You know exactly what you're getting every time.

All the "shootouts" seem pretty up in the air - Some swear by it, some swear at it.
 
Well, since I think Off Track Betting is silly, I take Independant Television Broadcasters hands down.

I think most ITB summing algorithms are fine at this point. The big disparity existed awhile back.
 
Traction2 now has 64bit summing - I'll let you know if I hear anything! :D
 
Being a newb to this, if someone was to explain (to a dummy) what ITB and OTB were, I'd appreciate it! :o
 
ITB= in the box. Doing all your mixing in your computer software.

OTB= out of the box. Routing your digital tracks recorded on your computer back out to an analog interface for mixing.

Thanks Alex, it makes sense now!
