Diablo Lighting Desk

[jonic222]

I'm looking into buying a Zero 88 Diablo ML lighting desk, and have used one before, but only for a couple moving heads. I have a few questions about them:

1) Its specs say it has 18 channels of dimming. Does anyone know of any way to expand this? What would happen if I used intelligent fixture channels for dimming?

2) How easy is it to build cues and chases

3) How easy is it to run for theatre, music/bands, other?

4) Anything else you want to say about it?
