[QUOTE="brian maddox, post: 18411, member: 158"] Re: showconsole - too good to be true? yeah, i'd love to hear more first person. although if they only made ten, i suppose there aren't a bunch of folks that have significant time on one. my only exposure to a showconsole was directing a fundraiser in DC where we had reba and martina mcbride as the talent. reba had one of these and martina's hubby had a paragon. i thought the paragon show sounded better. [img]http://www.soundforums.net/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif[/img] i did think that the harrison lpc and the showconsole were essentially the same desk. but again, i'm no expert. fwiw, i'm not really seriously considering this. but a lot of the misgivings i'm hearing don't really apply to my situation. this wold be a church install, so it's a fixed location with relatively light use. 3-4 people max [volunteers, but skilled ones] ever mix in our main auditorium, so rider acceptance is a non-issue. what is a huge issue is that i don't have copious amounts of time to spend fiddling with a foh desk. and that will almost certainly kill any inkling i might have to get one of these. but when i see a large format analog desk with gates and comps on every channel and recall for 20K, it's hard to not salivate just a bit.
