[Consortium] Flagship Midas console runs Linux

[Daniel James]

Hi all,

For those of you that don't know Midas consoles, they are the most 
respected live sound mixing desks for large events. They're equivalent 
to a studio's SSL or Neve, but specifically aimed at live front-of-house 
use.

It's just been pointed out to me that the new flagship Midas console is 
*advertised* as running on Linux (third bullet under Overview):

We know that several high-end mixing desks are free software based, but 
this is the first live desk I've seen where Linux is a selling point.

Cheers!

Daniel
