C|24 is great +++

Prety much everything you need for a Project Studio or Home Installation of HD3. A large host like a Mac G5 is a given. LE users will also like the ease of handling larger mixes. Feels like a mini-ICON at 1/3 the price. Impressive response on one of our a 43 track mixes across the ethernet connection with no recognizable latency. The DB25s to the fanouts make cabling to our outboard gear clean and tidy. Using the fader-bank button with the jog wheel is just sick!

The unit is heavy. This speaks to the dense internal switching/routing/interconnects. Handle it gently... two people please. The external PS is a definite plus in lowering the noise floor. It has to be cleaned (and dusted) from time to time as the supply box is completely vented.

Not sure you would move across from the old Control24 unless 5.1 Monitoring is needed (which is really cool on the C|24 btw) but that is simply a cost/benefit calc that varies with each installation. If you do POST and do not have the largess for an ICON, this unit bridges well.

Our company runs outboard channels like UA6176, GT VIPRE and ManleySlam but the 16 internal pre's will come in very handy when an 8 piece band shows up at your door and you don't have racks of outboard gear...

All-in-all, a home run for Digi.

Props to Don Burleson and the Sweetwater Team for their tireless efforts getting this to our door.
