Ich weiß nicht ob das jemand schon erlebt hat. Vielleicht aber hift dieser Hinweis im Vorfeld oder bei ähnlichem Verhalten. Es geht also darum, dass bei nicht geschirmten Kabeln mit Metallsteckern eine statische Entladung passieren könnte, welche sich auf die Synchronisation auswirken kann. Möglicherweise, Vielleicht, u.Umständen.
"Before you go and buy the Behringer X32 / Midas M32 digital stage boxes, I want to make you aware of a problem I had with my Behringer S16's. Actually, I do not think this is a problem with the unit itself but Behringer and Midas forgot to disclose the type of Cat 5 / Cat 6 Cable you need for these boxes. You see, I wasted about 300 bucks on a 250' and a 100' cat 5 cables that had the ethercon ends and were almost as thick as a speaker cable. The Cat 5 cables had no problem connecting the console and the sound check was fine.. But as soon as I would walk the room and build up static electricity on my body and then go back to the console and release a static discharge on the console all the channels would clip and I would lose sync from the console to the stage box. This is literally a show stopper.. It would create a huge pop in the sound system (REALLY LOUD) and even in some cases create digital distortion. This was horrible, So I built a static discharge device out of a grill lighter. Took all the fluid out of it and removed the metal end so that way I could shock the board with it as a tester. I tried several different cables and finally found a solution. It absolutely has to be a cat 5 cable with ethercon ends and a foil shield on the inside. After spending a small fortune on cat 5 cables I finally found one at guitar center that worked. I am not saying that this may happen to you. But it has happened to a lot of engineers out there. I just want to warn you about this because it can literally cost you your job. The stage boxes are good products and a great buy. Just make sure to get the right cat 5 / cat 6 cables."
