[QUOTE="Eric Cagle, post: 57685, member: 277"] re: X32 Discussion I guess I should have been clearer about using an X32 as a full featured remote. The latency wouldn't matter if it was just a remote. Most likely much less delay than just the distance to FOH from the speakers. The issue I would have is if a connection dropped out or was lost. What happens during the time it takes to reconnect and are there any pops and clicks or dropouts during the reconnection process. I would not use this configuration if the actual audio was being passed rather than just remote control of the mix assigned to FOH on the monitor console. At the cost of entry the X32 is affordable enough to be used as a full featured remote, especially if you consider you would have 2 actual consoles in the event you needed a backup or 2 single consoles for 2 seperate gigs. At worst case in the 2 console show situation you could mix from an Ipad in one of the positions if a console went down. Less than ideal but it would get you through. I see myself now buying 2 consoles. A CAT5 and a drive snake and away we go. One could argue that control of the preamps is an issue but it is absolutely not.
