[QUOTE="Adam Cooke, post: 133333, member: 5118"] Re: Help please! In at the deep end with a Soundcraft Expression 1. v1.0 is very old firmware, and you should update. I don't recall there being any problems with old show data, but regardless - you should update. 2. Try updating the firmware. VISI works great... I've never had a problem connecting. I just plugged in an Ethernet cable from my venue's existing LAN and it worked fine with no issues. No need for a dedicated router or network. 3. Mixes 9 through 14 can be switched to stereo, so there's no need to link mixes for stereo groups. Select the mix bus and go to the Output menu, where you can change the mix from mono to stereo. One annoyance - the main channel pans cannot be set to control pan within the stereo mixes/groups... you have to separately pan within each mix. I'm hoping Soundcraft updates firmware to include a post-pan pickoff to the stereo mixes eventually, so using the stereo mixes as audio groups works the way it should. 4. You can put any fader anywhere on any layer, including the FX faders. It's done in Fader Setup menu. The FX faders are in the stereo input dropdown (confusingly not listed as FX 1-4, but as stereo inputs 3-6, I think?). Hope that helps! [/QUOTE]
