[QUOTE="David Sturzenbecher, post: 141209, member: 204"] Re: Never update firmware at a show!!! Quite a few years ago I locked up a dbx 4800 about 6 hours before a Joe Walsh show because the silly System Architect programmers allowed you to check "update firmware" for the unit... yet, it needs its own update utility or needs to be done through the serial port....or something odd. I ended up pulling a unit out of monitor world and reprogramming it to make it through the gig. On the next gig, I was sharing a network with the monitor engineer and he pushed a System Architect venue (to just his monitor equipment) right before soundcheck...which turned the borrowed FOH driverack, back into a monitor driverack. Quite a lot of lessons learned. We stay completely separate networks now. [/QUOTE]
