[QUOTE="Scott Bolt, post: 84126, member: 3950"] Re: X16 Preview Wow. 5 days and only a single reply :( I did find the post where ULI B said that the DSP and 99% of the code base would be the same as the rest of the X32 line .... clearly making the iX16 capable of DCA's I would think. Fewer FX units (4 vs 8 on the X32). This may become an issue for me. The rumor is that V2 of the X32 firmware will include a pitch correction processor. On the X32, you have 4 send/return type of fx and 4 insert fx. If you had 3 vocalist, you could easily put a pitch corrector on each one of them and still have one insert fx left over for the main L/R graphic eq insert (which is surely going to be the most popular use of the insert FX .... along with monitor eq's). If the iX16 has only 4, the assumption would be that it would have 2 send/return efx and 2 insert efx.... in this case, I would still feel good about the send/return efx (where I would likely only use reverb and delay anyway ... ie 2), but there would not be enough inserts to do all vocals and provide my main mix with an equalizer.... not even close. I am fine with missing the S16 interface .... and I am also fine with losing the XLR output jacks and only having TRS aux outs. I actually prefer the combination 1/4" / XLR connectors on the iX16 vs the X32. Still not sure about the "8 bus" limitation and what that means exactly. Hopefully I will eventually get answers to some of these questions ;) [/QUOTE]
