To me, there's no question that the C24 is the way to go. The Pro Control is considerably older and I don't buy the thing about modifying it for the latest firmware. I think that's a bit of a tall story.
Having 24 faders is truly a completely different experience than 8 faders. My gut says C24, no question.
