Thanks for posting your observations and responding to them!

This board used to have more regular participants, but as Avid has failed to continue to update the 11 rack the users don't check in as often.. I pop in about once a month..

This board is still a great resource for newer users provided they know how to search (use google, enter search term(s) and "site:www.elevenrackpresets.com") as many common issues and routing glitches have been solved before..

As far as the usability of the 11R outside of protools, it is an official interface for PT but it was marketed as a universal interface for any DAW host, I use mine with Logic X and reaper (I don't use PT as much these days)..
