iPad Air 2 and DL1608 iPad Air Tray Kit

[Wynnd]

Hadn't thought about that.   I fine myself using my ipad mini remotely and leaving my ipad 2 docked.  When gigging on keys, the docked ipad gets the workout and the mini gets used for OnSong charts.

I guess I will just order the iPad Air docking kit and use my iPad Air (32GB) docked and my iPad Air 2 (128GB) as my remote unit.  May not make sense if I end up with the DL32R and sell the DL1608.

More good money after bad? See you soon. At least wait until after NAMM.

Pretty negative WK.  So far most are pretty happy with their DL32Rs.  But if I were purchasing very soon, I'd wait until after NAMM and see what kind of vaporware is coming sometime, maybe even this year.  Dean did have one with a problem, but Mackie looks like they're out to replace that unit quickly.  (That also lets them figure out why his unit was bad and see if some changes need to be made in manufacturing.)

Just wait for the 4u 19 inch ipad to arrive,

It's the future,

Do you often find yourself using both a docked and wireless iPad for control simultaneously?

I certainly do. Sitting at the mixer, all channels with no scrolling.

Always have one docked and one for remote, but that's a very good idea when running multiple channels and not having to swipe to access them all the time.

Taking that to the DL32R extreme would mean having 4 ipads for all 32 channels.   This idea might help me with my senior's variety show this May.  This year they won't be using the clubhouse auditorium, so I will be using the DL1608 and not Heather Garden's StudioLive 24.4.2 mixer.  (I lose the EAW installed speakers too, but that's really not a problem.  Heather Garden's installed PA is pretty nice.)

Or 2 iPad Pros.    If and when they materialize, of course.

Or you can leave Mackie and pick up a product that fits your needs and there are plenty out there at this point for $2400 or less. Oh unless you're a Mackoid.

Is there a 32 fader desk for under $2400?

Did I mention my cheap streak?

Best as I can figure my X32 (new) ran $2230 a year ago. Bundled with cases and S16.
