Re: D-Command replacement
Recently, I replaced the faders on my blue D-Command 8ch main unit. I posted the parts # on this "fighting faders" thread.
http://duc.avid.com/showthread.php?t=229857&page=6 Hope it could be useful for people who needed to replace their faders. Cheers, Simon Li at nOiz |

Re: D-Command replacement
Minimum S6 price point is approx $22k for an 8 fader unit.
D Command 8 fader units went for $15k new if I'm not mistaken. Plus Avid gave me $4k for my Pro Control to entice me to buy the D Command. This combined with my discount from my dealer meant I paid about $10K for my D Command. If they would have offered the S6M10 with deals like this, I would likely be an S6 owner. Then again, taking in trades and the impacts this had on the balance sheet is apparently part of what got them into trouble with NASDAQ. |

Re: D-Command replacement
Also, what I know is that you have to pay an anual fee to be able to have support on the M10 or M40. Is like having to pay a anual subscription to use the console. Just weird.

Re: D-Command replacement
If they're continually adding new/useful functionality I wouldn't have a problem with that.

Re: D-Command replacement
Guys,
I'm on PT12 native using Mackie 1640i Firewire board/interface streaming 16 x 16 to and from PT. I'd like to move to Avid D Command or D Control to get deep integration with dedicated plugin control for dynamics and eq. S1 doesn't interest me 'cause of having to dig through layers to access controls, S3 doesn't look much better in this regard and a little more than I want to spend anyway. Is spending $2k - $3k on a used D Command worthwhile or a waste of money in 2020, because it's no longer supported by Avid, and concerns about parts and service? Anyone out there still using D Command or D Control and intending to continue for a while, or if not what are you moving to? THanks. NIck |

Re: D-Command replacement
Use D-command every day. Our facility owns five units. No I can't live without it. S6 doesn't work for me.
