Title: Midas Pro 2 Dimensions. Too big?

Midas Pro 2 Dimensions. Too big?

I was looking for the dimensions of the Pro2 mixer to see how big it is compared to a few other mixers. So I downloaded the PDF file of the brochure. http://www.midasconsoles.com/assets/PRO2_Brochure.pdf

According to the dimensions in the brochure, it is way too big for any show I would ever do. I don’t know where you would find a truck that it would fit in. But it must be a marvelous engineering accomplishment to get something so big to be so light.

464.4” wide  = 38.7 feet
287.5” deep = 23.9 feet
108.2” high = 9 feet
 :o :o :o :o ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Obviously it is conversion error. The decimal point is in the wrong place.

Screen shot of the dimensions from their PDF.

I just saw one the other day and the dimensions really are deceiving.

Yes, but you have to pay shipping and handling, based on the original listed dimensions.    :o  Mark C.

You could turn it into a theme park ride with that size of flying faders !
