Hey I have the CTRL24 and that desk,
One time I considered moving to the C24
Two sale reps I've been dealing with for a long time talked me out of it.
I've never mixed on the C24 so I can't speak to the operations of that mixer
only to say I love the CTRL24.
I see them around use from 3 to 4 grand,
so I guess with the desk its a good not great deal.

Subject: Another question for Chuck Vin, Slau or anyone with Control 24
Well, I lost a D-command and an HDX rig so far. I'm still trying
though. Next on the plate is either a C|24 or a Pro Control with an
argosy fitted desk. Here's the deal. The C|24 is 6 months old with
almost no use according to the guy. It's in brand new condition for
$6000. The Pro Control I don't know much about other than the guy said
it has been modded for the latest firmware and he has this huge Argosy
desk that goes along with it which I really don't need. He claims the
Pro Control has better motors and faders than the C|24. He also said
the plugins are more easily mapped on a Pro Control and claims it has
a better feel when mixing. This one is going for $4500 with the desk
which by the way, is almost 8 feet wide. He won't split them up though
because the desk was fitted for the Pro Control. So, I don't need the
preamps from the C|24 but can you all please weigh in on what you
think? I'm also getting talked into an HDX system by the people I work
with. They keep saying once PT 11 comes out I'd be throwing my money
away on a used HD3 rig and to just go for the HDX with a 96IO or
something like it but that's an entirely different issue. The big
question is to C, or not to C|24?
