Hey Charles

Out of curiousity, does your ProControl have the "Click/stop" pots in the DSP section, if so I highly recommend you have them changed to the smooth pots. I also bought a used ProControl with the click-stop pots and they were driving me crazy, i've since had the smooth ones put in and the difference is remarkable!, again I recommend you do this, even before changing your transport keys!.

I had the parts sent to me and had my local tech install them, no drama!.

Have you tried contacting Stan Cotey from here?, you might be able to organise having the parts sent to you and have your tech install them, it's a no brainer "under the hood", well so my tech told me.

Good Luck, welcome to the other side!!, your eyes and back will sure appreciate it, not to mention your clients, and that extra coupla bucks extra you can charge.

hi Stefan

sorry for my delay
i'm still working on my studio
long hours my friend but almost there

i can't seem to find what you are saying
maybe is one of the newer ones

i'm just being picky
since the unit is soooo new
the only things showing some wear
are the transpot buttons and well you know
i want it to look as nice as possible

i got a SUPER deal on this 24 channel/edit pack PC

anyway
i just got a new pair of Yamaha NS-10 and
i'm looking for a matching power amp for them
what would you recommend?

thanks again for the info and replying to my post
i will post some pics of my studio very soon
so you can let me know what you think, ok?

take care
regards,

Hey Charles.

The Editpack sure looks great and would help ergonomics greatly, however I can't justify the expense at the moment.

I was refering to the 8 pots in the DSP section, the older models have clicky/detented style pots which were awful to use, it sounds like your one is a later rev with the smooth/free pots.

Have you seen any 2nd hand Edit Packs out there?, I look occasionally and haven't found anything.

As for an amp for your NS-10s, have u considered a Bryston?

Cheers
Stefan
