Hey Xander You misunderstood me.
I was saying I agree with Soundlight's statement above that Smartfade (Especially the ML) is great for
busking on a budget in the small club and DJ world. However, I disagreed with his saying that is it's "intended purpose". I've been told by several

I then went on to explain why I think it's inappropriate for and "hated" by many in the theater world.

point to
throw out about use in educational theater. It's a huge missed educational oportunity. Students using this board in school are missing out on the chance to learn a

ETC line was all those kids learning
Express in high school had a quick easy transition to being able to use an Obsession someday.
