[QUOTE="Craig Hauber, post: 1574, member: 272"] Helping to direct a purchase here and I have read most of the posts regarding it that I can find in the search. Still have 2 questions remaining: 1) Could you run the entire console from a computer connected to it using it's GUI software without touching the board itself? (other than pre-amps and patching) 2) Could you have another operator on the board at the same time doing monitor duties without FOH operator stepping on his every move? (They use a Mackie TT-24 this way and it works fine but it is exhibiting problems, it's way too large physically for the space after planned renovations -and of course they have discontinued it) The client is a high-end burlesque cabaret with a house ensemble that occupies 10ch. We've been doing a digital split on the mackie that puts each ch1-24 on it's corresponding 25-48 channels allowing a rather complex monitor mix situation without the house mix affecting it. I run FOH from a mezzanine with a cat-5 based KVM extender to a PC beside the mixer sidestage (so I'm running the machine natively not VNC) -However I can access it VNC from the other floors if needed I remember trying this with yamaha desks and studio manager and surface can't be separated enough -selecting a channel on the GUI also does on the console and vice-versa Unfortunately this is on a nightclub budget so any of the cooler Soundcraft, A&H etc.. options aren't within range right now.
