Re: X32 for theatrical work.
If you are willing to use a computer, I believe Kevin Hunter's application eventually will do the things you need.
As for Midi control, there doesn't seem to be Midi support for much else than the DAW-controller functions, and I guess it will remain that way, leaving us to manage with OSC over ethernet for most things.
Now for one of my pet peeves, ever since I did an undergraduate project on the subject eons ago, I've been trying to make project managers understand the relationship between users and project managment and how best to utilize and harness user interaction and feedback. Allthough the current process in many ways falls outside the traditional project definition, there is no doubt that this is the implementation phase of the X32 project, and the roles can be clearly defined allthough they are obviously quite obscure to most of us in the user group. I can write a few pages about this, but I'll just skip to what is relevant to this topic for now.
It is quite possible that the X32 have got enough on board memory and other resources to implement a higher number of scenes, multiple shows, scene insert etc. We won't know if nobody tells us.
It is quite possible that the development team has decided to implement these things, or has decided against it, again we won't know.
What would be good, is for someone in the development team that reads these forums to communicate these things.
Either: "We can't do it because of hardware limitations" or "We won't consider it at the present time because we don't see the need", but preferably "Yes, we can do that, and here is what we propose:.........., please comment on the proposed change"
And then when a change has "matured" thru' user interaction, set a rough timeframe for when the change will be implemented.
So, Behringer developers, can we have more scenes and scene insert????
