Here’s what I know. Avid has been saying relentlessly that Eucon for the “Big Desks” is NOT THE SAME as the Artist Series/S3!! They have made a federal case about this, using it as the reason that YOU CAN’T MIX AND MATCH THESE COMPONENTS. You can’t use Artist Mix faders with the S5 Control MC to save a couple of bucks. You can’t use S6 displays with an S3. Absolutely ANY workaround you could come up with by combining various levels of hardware has been TOTALLY BLOCKED (Who would buy an S6 if they could link 2 S3’s and a Dock? So, the S3 is the ONLY unit that cannot be linked). All of these issues have been explained away ad nausea, by saying there is a “PRO EUCON” and, for lack of a better term, a “CONSUMER EUCON.”
So the big question would be, if anybody with an S4 or higher can confirm all the mentioned bugs in this thread?! Already asked at the german distributor SMM, but no detailed answer so far…
