Compact console built around a ipad, 17 channels (16 + ipad), 8 to, general power supply 48v (damage), XLR and jack inputs but no RCA for ancillary systems, it has everything a large and well more !!!!
Attention iPad 3 required under penalty to pay an additional dock for the latest iPad.
A 16 channels in such a volume, it is the foot to move in presta presta.
Need immersion blender in the public? it is the ideal tool with all the features at hand (this is not a partial offset, but total control).

UTILIZATION

Manual except to banish to understand the logic of the display panel, then everything is intuitive. The whole logic of the system is the assignment of each function group by billboard.
Warning: ipad goes to sleep quickly in the absence of manipulation, it is necessary to revive and take the time to sync with the Mackie (+/- 1 second). Solution if there is, I am.

SOUNDS

Nothing to say about this console in sound reproduction especially as it has a whole bunch of filters and équalizeurs whose only fault is to occupy the curiosity and fascination of the operator "fiddles" instead of playing his instrument (in the absence of sound engineer).

OVERALL OPINION

Acquired in September, she turns every day. Accustomed to more traditional consoles, it's a gamble on technology that I did (after extensive testing in auditoriums).
Attention Apple prides itself on having no Bug, in fact there is one: the famous canal 17 and itune bugger sometimes and cause breath and blocking the volume of ipad. It is therefore necessary to prefer assigning a normal way rather than the entrance channel 17. Support contacted problem taken care of, but we will say that channel 17 was only the icing on the cake shriveled, which does not prevent the rest of function.
