Visited API's booth. They were showing the new Arsenal line of gear. A trade show floor is no place to evaluate audio, but I will say that these would definitely fulfill my need for Army surplus-styled gear populating my rack! They were also showing the 1608 console. Looks absolutely perfect for those of us with one foot in console-based recording and the other foot in DAW-land. It runs approximately $50K. It is the most solid console I've put my hands on in the sub-$100K price range. Very, very cool.
I should add that I am a big fan of the VPR alliance that API has set up allowing other companies to develop for 500 series racks. This allows those of us with semi-mobile rigs to move around and set up quickly. I can't say enough good about this!
