New DL32R competitor
« on: January 22, 2015, 05:28:41 PM »
Just released from A&H, very nice. Very nice indeed.

Although QU-Pac doesn't dependant on it, I would say the QU-Pad app would need to be polished a bit to make the overall package more user friendly.
I'm checking my bank account already :facepalm:

What a great product,

I like stuff that works out of the box, any mention of price and  lesser channel variants?

I'd still prefer no controls on it but with a wired control option that the DL32R lacks :( . This is also only 16 inputs so doesn't even compete with the X32 Rack. What I want is something with 24 inputs that's 2U :) .

16 XLR plus six 1/4" line inputs plus an XLR talkback input = 23 inputs :) .

Qu pac 16 plus 3 stereo - 22 plus talkback = 23 yippee 👍😉
Just as many outputs too, 12 xlr plus two pairs of 1/4". 
Then there's the qu drive, the multitrack recording to a usb stick is very handy👍😉
One more input and you be at the magical 24. Couldn't  you just solder an extra one on somewhere?
It's probably going to be a stupid price here in the uk. 
Anyway qu-pad isn't as nice as master fader.
There, I've talked myself out of it😝

I don't want to be dramatic guys, but

In the name of everything holy, when oh when oh when will they realize that less is more

Lol

I like the built in screen, if the berry x air ever comes out you will be able to maybe attach a pad mini or phone even somewhere on the back.

Less is more is where Apple went with the ipod.  Simple easy to use and a lot fewer controls than anyone else at the time.  They occasionally forget about that, but mostly Apple products are simple to use because there is less.  Look at the iphone.  That home button is simple and elegant.  Android with their 4 virtual buttons and the not obvious to me icons is clumsy.  (I will give Palm credit for the home button idea.  Used to have a palm phone.)

This is also only 16 inputs so doesn't even compete with the X32 Rack.

QuPac talks to their stage boxes for 38 channels.
