[QUOTE="Jeff Hague, post: 145837, member: 128"] Re: Linking two Si Expressions for FOH and Monitors? I do this with Si Performers (Expressions are the same) and Mini Stageboxes and it works well with a few caveats: You need a MADI expansion card in each desk. CAT5 or 6 [I][B]crossover[/B][/I] cable between the desks. On the "main" desk (the one where the inputs will be physically plugged in), assign the inputs as you normally would. On the main desk, assign the Direct Out for each input to a MADI channel. On the main desk, turn on D.O.G.S. (FYI - this does not appear to be saved when you save or export a show file so you need to remember to check it every time you power up.) On the other desk assign the inputs to the corresponding MADI channels. The main desk will have control of the input preamps and D.O.G.S will stabilize the outputs to the other desk - as a preamp on the main desk is changed, D.O.G.S. ensures that the output remains the same. Have fun! [/QUOTE]
