[QUOTE="Jeff Babcock, post: 14819, member: 46"] Re: Digidesign SC48 I no longer own an SC48, but this is a recent change. I owned one pretty much since its release and it was a great purchase. It's an excellent console on a very stable platform. I never experienced any lock-ups or other show stopping issues. The only problems I ever encountered were: - once I had a very OLD showfile (as in like 2007) from the big D-Show console. It opened but some of the patching was a bit off. - once I encountered a USB stick that when inserted, the console would not boot. Can't remember the brand, maybe Sandisk. Removal of the stick solved the issue. The stick worked fine, but for whatever reason something on it made the console want to boot from it rather than the internal HD. So I'd suggest not plugging in USB keys until AFTER you boot the console. Those are 2 very minor issues, which actually says a lot about the quality of this console. It was a joy to work on, and it sounded excellent. I'll miss owning one and look forward to any opportunity to mix on any of the Venue desks. They are my preferred digital desk at present time. (However I don't have any hands on time on Vi desks yet) I also really liked the Midas Pro6 when I played with one, but I have not used one on a show. [/QUOTE]
