Funny jargon is sometimes. "Two-mix" for me mostly.

Never heard of "S-Bus".

I remember reading a discussion of why it should be Buss with two "esses"...

Don't even get me started on "Analogue"...

Mix-Bus is fairly common, and I'll use that as well.

Ah not stereo bus at all. That was just total speculation on my part, but I'm glad you guys bought it. :-D

Sbus is a digital transfer protocol that Apogee developed for their symphony system for expanding across multiple computers.

So if there were 32 channels of mix bus you could potentialy hook up 32 computers to one system?

SBus is not the same as Mix Bus.

SBus allows you to send digital audio directly between Symphony equipped Mac computers. Connect two Macs with a single cable and double the processing power of your studio.
