personally, I never understood why people would NOT want half-normalized patch bays.
I mean, why not have that extra option ?
or maybe I've been missing something all this time ?
but yeah, I've got 3 half-normalized patch bays in here, and I'm a happy camper (though it did cost me a lot on cabling)

Half normalised is probably the best usage for general applications

So you guys think the Samson S-Patch is they way to go?

I think it's a relatively cheap patch bay with good build quality.
and it gives you the half-normalized option.

But I never tried other patch bays.
Patch bays are not exactly something you buy very often. :)

Well if you got one and it's held up for you under use, there isn't much else to ask for, eh?

I can't wait to get this shit set up. My work area at this location is WAY to small to fit that mixer, and when I'm not here, I'm usually in a hotel...Want to permanently install it at my other place, up north. Have a 14x16 foot room to set up as my main control area. It's all cement...Even the ceiling is a cement slab.

The bunker is awesome, and the house is serene as fuck.
