Presonus Studio Live 16.4.2 Mixing desk - Faulty. SOLD!
What's Hot
Basically, this has been in my storage room for the last year or 2 and I've never got round to fixing it and now I'm moving out and there's no point me taking it for it to go straight into storage again.
The problem it has it it seems to 'freeze' randomly. It has a bit of a pop, and then the output freezes. turn it off and back on again and works fine again. It seems like its probably a software / firmware issue, but Its also Firewire, and of course my new mac doesnt have firewire so rather than buying adaptors and messing about and stuff I just thought I'd let it go cheaper to speed things up.
Therefore its for sale 'As Is'. These seem to go for about £600-650 second hand, so i'm looking for about £200 as it is. Also open to offers or trades for anything else guitar related TBH. Like I say, its been in storage not being used for so long I kinda forgot I still had it.
Bargain of a desk for someone who has the patience to fix it!

I did the firewire port on another one, it's on a sub board rather than the main PCB which makes life easier
These go for £600-£650 on ebay, so I'd be happy to drop the price a bit to £150 so even if you have to get it fixed from presonus it'd still be at least £100 cheaper for the effort. or trade for any guitar gear / pedals or whatever. At this point I just don't really want to take it to my new place.
It had to be repaired 3 times when I had it. Each time the fault was it wouldn’t pass audio. Also the display of the Fat channel would randomly flicker and change settings on their own.
The diagnosis each time by my local repair shop was dirt had somehow got inside and was affecting the digital encoders on the faders.
They simply gave it a good clean inside and it sorted the problem each time. Repair bill each time was between £50-£60.
