The Avid S3L console (including the updated Avid S3L-X version) is an amazing digital console. Anyone who has used an older [Avid](https://avid.com/) console (e.g., the Avid D-Show or Avid Profile) will be right at home with the Avid VENUE software interface, meaning they can jump straight to crafting their mix.

- Security
The security model of the Avid S3L console was never designed for it to be attached directly to an open, unprotected internet connection. If you decide to connect the device to a network that connects to internet, **please ensure that connection is secured with a firewall**!!
The embedded Windows 8.1 installation has few open ports, but the multiple embedded Linux devices in the Avid E3 Engine, Avid Stage 16 stage box, as well as the Avid S3 Console all have some open ports with practically zero protections in place.
Ideally, the Avid S3L would only be connected to an isolated network with devices dedicated only to the task at hand, with no other devices.
