re: X32 DiscussionThe huge advantage I see is you can simply buy TWO consoles and use one as the monitor console, and then send the signal digitally to FOH. If one console craps out, you still have a second there to do the show.I'm guessing that the actual cost of putting the connectors inside the console is fairly minimal. You might shave a couple hundred bucks off the console at most. And then you lose the convenience of being able to use the console without a stage box for your smaller shows. I see it as a win over something like the GLD system where you essentially MUST buy a stage box at the same time as the console, thus increasing the cost of entry.
