Mackie User Forums shut down since 1/4
« on: January 15, 2013, 11:44:42 AM »

Doesn't look good for them returning - dealing with all them troublesome customers was too much for them I guess :( . Anyways there's an unofficial user's group for the DL1608 over here:
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/dl1608

I'm hoping they have some good news for us at NAMM. Until then I'm starting a rumor that they are being bought out by Behringer ;) .

Yup several days has been a couple of weeks now. They never were very good at running their boards or maintaining the server. To me it's another demonstration of Loud's disconnect with customers.

Are you sure it's just not being run by the same people that run the boards over at Harmony Central :-)

They were running fine until shut down on 1/4 "for maintenance". Mackie sure doesn't seem to want to rebuild their credibility with BS like that :( ! As for HC, I do know that by Friday the switchover will be done and hopefully all will be better than ever :) !

I think the HC upgrade was last week and the new improved v3 if what's in place now.   ::)

I think it would be less aggravating if they just shut it down until the new software is ready to "go live".
