Took three days to have a working unit in our hands again.

And for this reason I would never hesitate to buy from digidesign
You will often find this to be the case. The actual repair people are slack/too busy/don't give a fuck, but the manufacturer doesn't realise this until they get feedback from YOU.

Whenever a piece of equipment goes in for repair, email the manufacturer and tell them the details of the fault, where you sent it, date etc. Every time you have correspondence with the repair agent, make a record of it and email this off to the manufacturer with an update on your repair. (often as easy as CCing them the email).

This way, if the repair is taking ages, the manufacturer will already be aware of it and will be kicking the repair agent in the arse from above.

Pity it is necessary with some service agents but this approach guarantees you service
