    After another set of back-to-back festivals, I humbly renew the request for an offline editor for the QU platform. Those are busy times, many times with bands showing up with a scribbled stage-plot hour(s) before taking to the stage. How nice it would be to be able to build a scene for that band while mixing the band already on stage. The 10-15 minute changeover is tight enough without trying to set scribble strips, and pre-setting library settings.

    The saying “A failure to plan on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part” just does not work. More like “The show must go on” regardless of the number of cats being herded.

    Please consider this for near-future implementation. Sure would be nice…

    Even a simple utility to convert / validate scene file from / to, e.g. XML format would be useful.

    If we can do that then someone else can write an editor…

    Yes, being able to get a print out of a scene would be really handy. For GLD too. I did have a look at the format, but it is a fairly archane binary dump format, which is not easy to parse 🙁

    I’d also like the editor. Qu-Pad only gives you Wi-Fi access, which is not always reliable even at 5G. A laptop at FOH connected with Cat5e to a Qu-Pac! Does it get any smaller for a stable 32 channel setup? I have an iLive rig when the customer requires more processing.

    I know this sounds a little crazy but not really when you think about it.
    If you guys are doing battle of the bands and festivals with lots of groups and virtually no time between….
    it is reasonable to assume that you are being paid halfway decent for the job to provide sound. As affordable as these QU mixers are, I am assuming you guys are using an AR2412 boxes with them too…
    get a second console and purple box, set the mixers side by side (FOH) and get your next band set up on it while you are
    running the other band, then switch the D snake cable to the other purple box. Just make sure that the masters on the “go to”
    console are no higher than the one in use… as far as outputs are concerned, these could be tied together with an isolation transformer box.

    I personally have not done this, but it should work flawlessly.
    Whoever hired you for sound will be massively impressed.

    shoot me now 🙂

    In the multiple-group/line check>GO situation, I will not work it unless there is shared backline. The only real change I’ll accept is the left-handed drummer, otherwise everyone uses the same kit and amps.

    There’s not enough money to pay me to do it any other way.

    Bang.
    No, not using a stagebox.
    Before I buy a second QU as you suggested, I’d get a Soundcraft or Behringer which already have the offline editor.

    Why does A&H pretend these are not “pro” boxes?
