[QUOTE="Eric Hill - USA, post: 65191, member: 2100"] re: X32 Discussion Both applications should have the same change control and development style. Because the XControl app can modify settings on the X32 in real-time, that can lead to problems, just as a firmware problem can. For example, there was a problem with the last version of XControl (I haven't checked this version): - On the X32, set Panning Mode to "LR+Mono (default)". - Start XControl, connect, and do a Sync from Console -> PC. - Go to the Global Page on XControl. - The X32 Panning Mode will be changed to "LCR enable". (The Panning Mode is not being correctly sync'd, and its default in XControl is "LCR enable," which is passed back to the X32 when you go to that page.) (Forgive me if I'm wrong in the test order... It was weeks ago that I found this problem. I was going to mention it, but it slipped my mind. There has been a couple of firmware updates since then, too.) Do that during a live show, and that has unintended consequences that aren't good. Who knows, this problem could be a firmware problem, not an XControl problem. Bottom line, when we have two pieces of software interacting with each other, they need to be fully tested together, with every iteration of release. They aren’t islands unto themselves. Eric H.
