Avid makes good consoles imo but that thing is pretty outdated. My roomate runs the audio department at Brooklyn bowl and they just got 2 new S6L, he says they are his favorite counsols he had mixed on. Then agian im a lighting guy so my knowledge on digital audio is pretty limited.
I like Avis’s S6 series, especially paired with protools now that it’s powered by Avid. It makes for a pretty seamless interface. I like the D shows, it was the first “live console” I ever learned, but yeah they’re definitely outdated. I assume um was using rental gear for a one off festival gig, hence the lack of their midas consoles
Definitely rental gear. I ran a show on a Profile for the first time in like 5 years this weekend and man I just find them so clunky. I know people have a hard a hard time with the Midas Pro Series stuff, and I kinda agree that they’re not great for venue boards, but once you get past the learning curve the workflow is so nice
I’ve honestly never gotten beyond the m32 and my live mixing experience is basically zero, but I am a Chris Mitchell fanboy so I like whatever he likes.
I’ve heard the patching is confusing (never had to set one up from scratch myself) and that the customizable/assignable buttons can be a pain if you’re not using it for the same band every day, but when they’re set up to use for a specific band it’s amazing. I also love the M/X32. Probably my favorite of the 32 channel sub-pro boards, but I guess the main challenger is the A&H stuff and I’ve never really been a fan.
I like the m/x32’s from my little experience. Gonna start doing FOH mixes for some EDM shows starting here soon and the venue has a x32. Gonna have to watch some YouTube videos to re-familiarize myself with the interface and work flow. Luckily there isn’t much to do as far as mixing goes with EDM music
