[QUOTE="Tim McCulloch, post: 73127, member: 67"] Re: X16 Preview Our customers aren't requesting this capability, in fact they reject it. I have a 3 page email from a national act that played a festival we unsuccessfully bid on. The provider basically said "sure, yeah, right... you'll get an M7 or Venue SC48 for FOH." Promise her anything but give her Agpege.... When the act arrived the TD found a Studio Live at side stage, with an iPad. Your customer base and clients are probably very different from most of ours. Our clients don't have a hissy fit because we run snakes or that the featured entertainers expect an FOH console to be in the house. We don't do bar gigs for the most part (boss will briefcase a bar gig as a favor to old musician friends), we don't do weddings, we don't do a lot of stuff where the mere suggestion of technical gear makes a client apoplectic. FWIW, I've used both M7 and VENUE consoles with a Motion Computing tablet using VPN (purchased for $300 on fleabay). Not for mixing the show, but for setup and tuning. And for that, I don't need $400 of Gee Whiz, I have an iPad tacked onto the price. [/QUOTE]
