[QUOTE="Brandon Blakeney, post: 109293, member: 178"] Re: Midas Pro 1 failure You make an excellent point Chris, which I think actually strengthens my argument. It seems that with most digital consoles people are just using the internal power supplies, with only the most pro users actually carrying a redundant supply. With most analog systems that I have worked on, one component can fail without bringing down the entire system. If your equalizer dies, bypass it (as we had to the other day); if your comps die, ride the faders all night; if your efx die, do without; and if one power supply dies, switch to another. Now with a digital console that relies only on an internal power supply all of your eggs are in one basket, unless you have a back-up console. I carry a back-up console even for analog, I have a 32 channel GL2400 with me at all times. [/QUOTE]
