Sam it's not about disagreements it's about lack of respect for what is trying to be accomplished here. He has a long history on other forums as well. Some just humor him others ignore him. The net effect is that he dilutes the value of this forum as pytchley stated. Prospective members trying to get some useful information from here have to wade thru all this diatribe, it needs to stop. My suggestion is to ignore him. It's easier if RR wants to clean up all the droppings. It's also not this particular thread but the many others. Robbo it was the continuation of the Mackie forum (technical) after a rude removal by Mackie of their own forum, lest we forget.

From the brief time I was on the Mackie forum it actually seemed quite diverse to me.
There are no hard and fast rules here, as you well know, or our mutual "friend" would have been banned for outburst after profain outburst against you, me and many others.
Even after outrageous behaviour, people still thought he was a valued contributor.
It just goes to show how varied our perceptions can be.
Kev tyler:
Hi guys
I honestly don't see what I have written to upset you,
Let's have a recap of what I said,
700 or 1200 euros + pad+ spare pad is a bit pricey for people who require a very low channel count,
The free ipad thing was a joke
I think the 700 euro dl is going to look expensive compared to the berry x( if it comes)
I have not slagged mackie, nor you, nor anything, it's an opinion, what's wrong with having one of them?
My suggestions re the 1u 2 channel dl, the wundamix , well you can scoff, but you better tell motu and co that it's a bad idea, there are a few on the market, I am merely suggesting that there is room for a cheaper no frills more suited to live use version
I will ask the question again, what do you guys do, know that makes your opinions any better than mine, wd40 TV repair man, wynnd man in France, you probably play in covers band or do foh for covers band, you are not on tour with bon jovi, if you were we would not be discussing a cheap desk would we,
Robbo, the most negative and damaging person on this forum is wd40, why don't you suggest we ignore him? ?he has put me off taking the mackie plunge.
Thansk Sam, thanks braden,
pytchley:
I have to admit Kev's right. I do owe an apology but not to him more like to the rest of you for stirring up all this unpleasantness. So I'm very sorry and hope this controversy at least serves to put things straight in this otherwise excellent forum. I hope it remains a place for users of the DL mixers to share experiences and drive Mackie to improve the products in an atmosphere of good humour. As a final reply to Kev's unpleasant taunts I'd like to add that there is nothing bad about playing in a covers band, most musicians do at one time or another, my current bluegrass influenced band does a few alongside some original stuff. I've been lucky enough to earn my living for the past 47 years in and around music and being a drummer living in a remote and beautiful part of France it's not always been possible to find a good paying gig so long ago I invested in PA and studio equipment so as to be able earn a living without having to dig too many holes etc. A couple of times in my career I have had the good fortune to work in bands that toured extensively around Europe, nothing huge but lots of festivals and outsize monitor systems hence my left ear problem!!! I hope this puts an end to all this nonsense and we can move on. I just wish Mackie would hurry up with 3.1...
