[QUOTE="Brian jojade, post: 64328, member: 211"] Re: Personus Studiolive Users - Reliability? I had a SL 16.4.2 that I used about a dozen times. On several occasions, the board had glitches, resulting in an entire muting of the console for several seconds. I did find out that if you use the FireWire interface, and that interface for whatever reason gets disrupted, the board will mute. ie, if your computer crashes, or the cable gets unplugged, or the computer goes to sleep, bam, board mute. However, I did have one instance where the board muted multiple times without being plugged into the computer. It was suggested that faulty power was to blame for this. I didn't see any significant voltage swings during the event, surely nothing that I would have thought could be the cause. My feeling is that if a board MUST be connected to a UPS to function, it's a poor design. I sold the board to a church, and they've been pretty happy with it. However, they have run into a few instances where the board needed to be power cycled because of weird things happening. I've since bought a 16.0.2 for my smaller jobs, and haven't had a single problem with that one yet. [/QUOTE]
