X18 X18R X16R X12R Details & Video

The app's not done yet, is it? How are you supposed to use it?

At least you have a choice of 5 platforms instead of 1. That's Windows, Linux, Mac, Android and iOS.

Not quite yet as of now, though sooner than later I would wager based on this  post #5: http://forum.music-group.com/showthread.php?6214-X-Air-Edit-is-out-there&p=40655&viewfull=1#post40655

No Mac or Linux yet. Also no forgetting. I've been here all along. QSC's initial app was less functional than Mackie's. All I've seen for the X-Air's is the iPad app, though, and it seemed to be a mock-up. Perhaps it works when hooked up. I expect we'll know pretty soon.

Uli or Starin should be thinking about a warehouse in CA or at least in NV instead of Chicago.  I have ordered many things from China and received them in a week (large sized items). Time for a 21st Century shipping solution.

For one or two items, you can do that -- I do it, too. However, when you're shipping containers-full, air freight is prohibitively expensive. There really is no "21st Century" alternative.

You don't really think they're handled separately. They're shipped in containers and also have to be sorted out at this end.

I know exactly how shipments from China are handled. Spent nearly 8 years of my life dealing with it. I know exactly how "onesies" can be air shipped and take 10 days to get here, and containers fit on ships and take weeks. Yeesh. READ BACK. We've been through this.

Sweetwater has the XR18 in stock and ready for shipment.

Anyone order one of these?

OK one more time, will anyone here admit  that they ordered one of these?

Place my order with Rat Sound for the X18 today. ETA is mid February. Price well below what I'm seeing online. I suspect I'll be lucky to see it by March. We shall see...

I checked in with Rat Sound on the X-18 order. They said it looks like the ship date to me will be Feb 28th. Fingers crossed...

My fingers are crossed for you too!

So on the 29th we should have a confirmation on your order. Carriers have been known to screw thing up, Murphy.
Sorry it will take a couple more days from Oxnard to San Fran.

I just wish they would have started with the x12 and worked up, looks like I will be waiting for Christmas again.

 

[sam.spoons]

Which Christmas Kev?

[Kev tyler]

Which Christmas Kev?

Christmas  last year and the one before that,

Well I have the money now Sam for either a Dl or an x, don't have any gigs here on the costa Blanca, and it seems daft buying a 1000 dollar anything at the mo,

Need to sell my ass on the corner

I'm actually entertaining the thought of an XR12 for a bass rig. My "big" bass rig is an NU3000 into a pair of 4 ohm 2x12's (I use this for subs in smaller rooms now when just doing sound) and I'd like a preamp that can also let me mic up the kick in crappy clubs with vocal only PA's. I might be playin' with an originals stoner/doom metal band...

What you need for a preamp in those clubs is one of these new fangled Mackie iPad things...... I just happen to have one for sale

Boy you really know how to hurt a guy.

Back to the original OP I've been running a XR18 thru it's paces. It'll take about a month to deal with all that. What you thought Uli get's spared, think again. You just won't hear about it here, ask RR for the details.
