Why is it so important to have the console?
Give me some scenerios where it makes things easier?

Cruel Hoax said:Let's say you're mixing. And you say to yourself "I want to bring down the volume of the drums". You can either click on the virtual fader of each drum track one by one, or you can grab the faders with your hand and bring them down.
Say you're recording a vocal part. The vocalist says "more me in the headphones". You can either search for the vocal part, then click and drag on the virtual fader... or you can just grab the vocal fader with your hand.
A large portion of the time, I find that if I control my mix with a mouse, I end up mixing with my eyes. If I can close my eyes and adjust the parts by feel, I end up mixing with my ears instead. Much more musical.
