I may not be a "pro" nor have I toured extensively but I've had mine 
since 1995 and have been very happy with them. Problems along 
the way have been mostly due to thermal/heat problems (solved 
by making sure there is good ventilation around the units) and the
wearing out of the plastic footpedal buttons (which I now own a 
lifetime supply courtesy of Mouser Electronics).

Geoff's advice to
>1) ALWAYS turn it on last after every thing else in you're rack
>2) never repatch the EDP when on
are sound instructions as well. 

I would also advise:
3) If you have multiple MIDI/brother-synced units, turning your 
EDPs on as close to simultaneously as possible. Master/slave 
and synching can get messed up if this is not done.
