I understand that DAW control on the SQ series is “In Development”. I’d like to know a few things about what to expect on DAW control So that I might determine which of my customers might benefit from it and how I can help them integrate the SQ into their workflow.
Can anyone here point me to a manual or general description of how DAW control will function on the SQ series?
Here are a few specific questions that I’d like to have answer for if anyone knows.
– I understand (from another post on the forum) that the DAW control will operate through the use of “MIDI STRIPS” which can be assigned to any layer/bank we wish. I hear that there will be up to 32 of these strips. Is this accurate and do all versions of the SQ consoles have the same 32 channel capability?
– What control protocol does the DAW control utilize? Mackie Control? HUI? ICON? Custom/Proprietary?
– If it uses Mackie Protocol, will the SQ series support more than one 8 channel bank of control at a time (Some other digital consoles only support 8 channels of Mackie control at a time… and that’s not useful for our needs).
– Can you confirm that scribble strip information is transferred from the DAW to the SQ? (will scribble strips work)
