[QUOTE="Steve Kirby, post: 140294, member: 9411"] Re: Digital mixer I would buy: Hi Weogo, Yes, I've seen the Qu-Pac and similar B stuff. What I'd like to see is something that doesn't rely on a separate touch pad interface in a top box form factor. The touch pad interface is great for a secondary control, but I'd like to see something that any musician can pick a channel and tweak without a lot of careful touch screen dragging and pinching. Typically (and this is more of a junior varsity than varsity thing but the thread is here and the stuff we're discussing is mostly JV level) most bar bands don't need more than the 8 channels of the typical top box. Vocals and maybe keys and a kick mic. Tons of buses aren't necessary either. Somewhere between 4 aux sends for multiple wedges and maybe 8 for 4 stereo IEM sends, along with a simple main LR out. I've just found that when all your attention is on the interface, the power of a large tablet screen is awesome. But when fixing something on the fly tactically, it's slow and cumbersome. [/QUOTE]
