Looking into buying a used smartfade ml, I have looked and looked and im torn between pc and console but at the end of the day i like real buttons to much and dont want the hassle of running 6 midi controller and spending a week + patching midi faders to software. So that has led me to the smartfade ml.
I primarily do live concerts and high end weddings ect. I like the built in rgb control on the ML , i haven't seen this anywhere else, and anything else in my price range seams like its already so old that its not worth having. I would like to stay under 1500 bucks if at all possible. Im currently running a martin xciter which was a good board for doing small clubs but i have rapidly outgrown its whopping 6 faders.
My system is primarily led, and growing rapidly. I do however have a few sets of martin mini macs and some martin scanners that i still use from time to time. At this time im still well within one universe so i dont need anything massive yet.
i see used mls from time to time for around a grand but i thought i would look for some opinion from people that have had more than five minutes on them which is the grand total of what i have had. I happen to live in the armpit of Atlantic Canada, where we seem to have a technology freeze. Most places are still using gear from the late 80, early 90s. So there is no where i can go short of driving for two days to go and try out new boards.
