FS: Digidesign X-Mon
Seriously underused. Sits in a rack doing nothing. It is time of it to find a better place to go.
Update: *** SOLD *** |
Re: FS: Digidesign X-Mon
how much do you have pics!

Re: FS: Digidesign X-Mon
I second that.
Also what do you use instead of the XMON |

Send an offer if interested! Regarding the price, any decent one would take it really. I am almost done setting up a small Atmos studio and I need to flog what's not necessary and put something back in the bank. To be honest, I really don't know how to price this one though. Some units here are going for very low but new price is pretty high. Not that many alternatives out there either. I am selling this very reluctantly as if the MTRX comes up with any fault I'd have no alternative. Having it on the racked wired on the patchbay I think might be a good idea. Re pics, there is one on an eBay listing I am running here. Genuinely, this is virtually unused. It has been sitting on a rack doing nothing. I had another X-Mon in the past. This was meant to go on another edit room that never got built. |
Re: FS: Digidesign X-Mon
Xmon's typically fetch 3-400 these days if they are for the D-Command/Control, newer XMon's are more expensive.

Re: FS: Digidesign X-Mon
Are you asking 1000 GBP which is 1200 USD for a old xmon ...
Not trying to be an ahole here but barely unused doesn’t make it more expensive. A bad condition unit makes it less expensive which would be in the 275-350 dollar range. |

But since you're coming so strongly about it - and while I am thinking about this now - I will debate this for you! :D Quote:
Sure, in this particular case, if a heavily used X-Mon, with a lot of cosmetic marks and scuffs is going for $350 then that price difference is steep. This premise does not take place to goods and products that get better with age/ usage or their current manufacturing methods are of lesser quality than their older counterparts, among some others (i.e. vintage musical instruments in my book :D !) The exact opposite goes for technological products (deprecation) which an X-Mon surely might fall under. But realistically speaking, what should be the price of a midi-controlled monitor controller, with Eucon support, quite a lot of functions, expandable for Dolby Atmos (partner it up with Colin Broad’s A-mon and a TMC-1 controller), etc. What is a similar alternative currently in the market at that price range? Thinking features per dollar, if an X-Mon is going for $350 that makes it a mighty bargain! In all the above put in to the equation a couple more factors: big places often right off kit after 5 years. 2nd hand market sale is just an added bonus. At least that is the case for companies such as my day-job employer. In stark contrast, this particular X-Mon was purchased by my freelancing gigs and to cater for them. It didn't get any use after all. Anyway if anyone is interested ping me with an offer! I need to recoup some of the dent the MTRX has caused! :D |

The Eucon support comes from the Eucon software and a modified USB/MIDI cable and not the box itself. The instructions for building this cable are on the internet (I think even in Avid's knowledge base.) It's a pretty simple MIDI to serial cable wiring that then gets plugged to a MIDI port on the computer (which you tell the software to communicate thru) The reason why the grey fetch a higher price is because they look newer. Same reason that the Sync HD blue vs grey have the blue commanding about $1k less. They are internally exactly the same. |

after I bought my D-Command that came without an XMON. You have to modify the 9 Pin Sync Cable, not USB/Midi cable, of which, this has nothing to do with Eucon, it enables the XMON to Sync with the D-Command. Also, the newer Sync HD are completely different than than the older gen. I have an older Digidesign Sync laying in the fiberglass insulation in my garage attic, its not worth 35 bucks, a used Sync HD fetches around 1k or more today (Just confirmed via Reverb Sold Listings). |
