At least 901 since you posted this because I bought one. This is a product Avid has REALLY hit the mark with IMO, plus it's developing and improving at an impressively fast rate.

I thought it was overpriced when it was first released but having started assembling one today, it's VERY impressively engineered and the build quality of the modules is fantastic. You can see where the money has gone. The new configurability options for the M10 is a very wise move IMO. It was daft not being able to expand beyond an 8 or 16 fader M10 but now you can.

...And there are always deals to be had!!!

I'm pretty sure the M10 was always expandable up to 24 faders max. But they did add the ability to add more total modules to support things like Panners and the PEC panel.

But to your point- yes, expandability is awesome.

Yes the M10 has always been max 24 faders and 4 modules wide. Now its still max 24 faders but up to 6 wide for additional modules like Joysticks, PECDIR and exp Knobs.

That is good news, I'm happy that that unit is selling well for Avid.

Hopefully, because of the sales of it, we will start to see more D commands for sale.

I think it's probably more actually......I bet that D-Command is pretty heavy. Then insurance and if it's damaged when it arrives....sounds like hassle city.

I am still trying to talk this guy in the states out of his (which he doesn't use) for 2k.....
