[QUOTE="Jef Bass, post: 68829, member: 1882"] Re: Case/doghouse tray idea... Amen to cutting racks, brother. I would rather cart a pair (or 3) of these than anything else. Especially with the fact that I am (as soon as the three S16's arrive) cutting down the weight of multicore also. Sticking a bundle of 4 cat5 lines, 2 com lines, and an AC line on a canare reel will save some effort also- I love that my snake is now just over an inch in diameter. I will go back thru the threads and look for musical theater posts. I think that this desk will be very well suited for most productions. If you're doing Phantom and want to try and 360* pan the phantom's voice you might have a challenge, but most should find it fits well. Using the scene memory from the USB stick will almost be imperative. I am keeping "starting points" only on the console itself, and setting up a new thumb drive for each show.
