Making Money with Control 24

[digi2000]

This may seem like a stupid question, but I am very interested in your responses.

I am thinking of purchasing a Control 24 with PT Mix Plus, an 888 and a 1622. I will be using Mackie 824's for monitors, wavelab 3.0 for mastering.

Other equipment

Akai S3000
Korg Wavestation EX
Yamaha CS2X
Korg MS2000R
Waldorf Micro Q
AKG Mics, (Will geta few Neumann's with new config)

How much do you think is a reasonable mount to charge per hour for this type of setup. I am in a town where there are 2 other Pro Tools systems, but really nothing else to speak of. My competition ranges from $35-85 per Hour. What rate are you guys charging and how booked are you with your Control 24 Rigs.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

can't answer your question really, everything depends on where you are, and who you are. Build up a rep for good work, then you can charge more.
On another note, you'd be much better off going for an ADAT bridge and for instance a Lucid 8 ch converter, same money but much better sound
