It's not often that you find a product that begs you to touch and feel it, but the Cantar-X from Aaton is jsut such a beast. The company calls it 'the Stradivarius of new generation multi-track digital sound recorders' and from all accounts that is not stretching the truth. The sales pitch includes references to 'waterproof, sandproof linear faders', the fact that their LCD displays 'remain perfectly visible on a snow field under bright sunlight' and the fact that the operator can easily adjust a variety of settings even while wearing heavy gloves. Nice.

Begging to be touched? I really know my way around most recording equipment; the user interface on that thing is probably the most intimidating and confusing looking jumble of knobs iv'e ever seen. As a recording engineer, i would still have no idea what to do with that thing. Granted, aesthetically, it has that "my DAW can kick your DAW's ass" kind of appeal in that it looks like a tiny Humvee with knobs and faders all over it (a design approach I admit i find to be very fun to look at and very underrepresented in modern design)
