X Air...
Used the X Air for 2 sets last night. Initial impressions and gripes.
It seems almost intentionally 'dumbed down' compared to the X32. It reminds me way too much of the Mackie digitals....and having the tabs on the right of the screen for your different busses is IMO just plain dangerous...WAY too easy to start adjusting monitor sends by mistake. At least you can scroll the screen and it stays where you stop instead of jumping in groups of 8 or 12. Not sure if you can reorder the channels, I couldn't mix vocals and FX returns on the same screen scroll. Oh....and the built in WIFI connection sucked big time...get a router. Are their DCA's? Overall, for my use...I would just spend the extra money and get the X32 Rack...with so much more capability and flexibility.
