Re: Avid S6 48 Chan Build, Pics & Improvements
Alex,
Thanks for the info! This type of feedback is really important for us to hear. Those 3 issues will be addressed soon... 1. Ethernet Switch Ground Screw The tie-down bracket is being redesigned with a cut-out to accommodate for the ground screw. 2. Leg Frame Assembly You're absolutely right... if you tighten down the leg and beam screws too early you'll end up having problems aligning the chassis later on. We're updating the Installation Guide with these changes now. 3. Side Covers Screw Craig had it right... there should have been flat-head M4x14 screws for these positions. It looks like you may have swapped the screws for the Side Mounting Plates (p.31 of Installation Guide) with the Side Covers screws (p.51). Again, thanks for the feedback! Let us know if you have any other questions/comments/concerns. Thanks, Rich |

Re: Avid S6 48 Chan Build, Pics & Improvements
Thanks for all the lovely feed back people!
Some updates on my end: 1) What ever machine(s) you have controlling the S6, make sure their Wi-Fi is turned off. For some strange reason this affects the meters, both on screen and beside the faders. This is something i'm sure will be fixed in a patch in the near future. 2) If you're expecting an S6 next week you'll find it to be a bit buggy. This was to be expected as it is a brand new machine that they are still working on. Some buttons just straight up don't work, but avid states all of this info in their "S6 guide" saying certain buttons are not yet implemented. 3) For some odd reason, I can not for the life of me add a plug-in on a channel. Even following the guide doing everything step by step, I still nothing. Again, just minor bugs that will be ironed out. In the mean time check out some more of the pictures I've posted. I also got a neat video of the board in "vegas mode" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZ88Sjuq2j8 Cheers!

and The furthest knobs are the perfect reach, not too far, but not so close that everything is crammed together. So to answer your question, they are closer than a D-Control, but very comfortable to reach.

Re: Avid S6 48 Chan Build, Pics & Improvements
Hello Alex,
We've just assembled an S6 M40-16-5. I can confirm it was a pain the metal plate to secure the router, although in our case we had to force it a bit and it fitted without removing the screw. I'll remove it next time I'll have to reassemble it since we need to move the console from one studio to the other. What I can't seem to find is how to enter the vegas mode for the Knob Modules, can you spare that small hint? Last but not least, does the Master Module has a Vegas Mode? If so same question as above, how do I enter it? Thank you. |

Re: Avid S6 48 Chan Build, Pics & Improvements
To enter Vegas Mode - you need to do it on each module. It is the two upper-left-most switches. You hold them down for about 3 seconds and then the choice of modes comes up.

Re: Avid S6 48 Chan Build, Pics & Improvements
That seems a bit awkward like procedures for each module?

Will this get fixed as the Vegas Mode is part of the "Let's Impress The Client" and our D Control ES 32 have been doing so for quite some time now and will be replaced by our S6 M40 24 Fader Console Any info on this is greatly appreciated as this "workaround" seem less impressive ... Thanks Chris
