[QUOTE="Lionel Miller, post: 16228, member: 254"] Re: Soundcraft Vi6 pros and cons There is a Vi6 and a Vi4 at a venue I work at occasionally. It's a very easy to use desk and we find that we can get the engineers up and running on it easily and confident in it. It's great that two people can operate it so you can help out the engineer mid show if he needs something doing and he can still be using the other half of the board. I personally like all the visual feedback the desk gives you when mixing - you can see pretty much everything going on. A graphics card died in the Vi4, the effects card died on the Vi6 (which has the knock on effect of not letting any audio out of any mix bus (apart from solo bus) - fix is to just pull effects card and grab your old spx's!), I think one of them had a faulty dsp card at some point as well. However I have never had a show stopper on one. I don't like the onboard delay and would prefer a D-Two but that's the same with lots of digital desks for me. [/QUOTE]
