Thanks Coronos, I’d google for ages trying to find how to disable auto update per app, so nice one 🙂

Just need to see if there’s an apple equivalent now for the posher band members 😉

The new app version 1.4.0 definitely didn’t work against desk 1.3.2

Regarding disabling auto update, unfortunately on android at least I can’t see any way to disable auto update for just one app, and disabling it totally in this day and age with security updates galore would seem very risky.

Interesting idea about one app version per Major.minor desk version. Allen & Heath state somewhere that the .patch version doesn’t matter.

Some great new features in 1.4, but dies anyone else share this concern and frustration I have:

We use the SQ5 in our church. There are around 10 band members who all love and use the sq4you app.

When I turned up to the rehearsal yesterday, the sqmixpad app on my android tablet has auto updated to 1.4 and some of the band’s phones had auto updated to 1.4

I was left in a situation where I was forced to update the desk to 1.4 to get up and running again. This seems quite a fragile way to run. I might not have had a USB stick on me, it might have been just before a service and so updating the desk then would have been risky in case of problems.

I don’t think it’s unreasonable given that phones auto update by default for the phone app to be compatible with desk versions:

Major.Minor.Any
And
Major.Minor-1.Any

Do others share this concern and is this something Allen and Heath have considered?

Keep up the great work

Hi Johan,

Which SQ firmware are you using?

[chibbParticipant]

I’ve raised a ticked with A&H support about this too.

Even with very good WIFI signal there seem to be connection lost / desk freezing issues that seem to occur even with a very good WIFI signal. Their suggestion of removing the network cable to unfreeze the desk also didn’t work for me.

For some reason, and it makes no logical sense to me, the connection lost/desk freezing problems reduced after I set a static IP on the desk and updated the DHCP range of addresses assigned by the WIFI router.

[chibbParticipant]

I’m having similar issues too right now. I’ll be taken A&He’s advice if moving the wireless router closer to where I use mixpad. This has also been causing or sq5 to freeze when mixpad or sq4you losses connection, on this point A&H have said this is a known issue in v1.3.0 that they are working on, a suggested work around is to disconnect the Ethernet from the desk when this happens and it should un freeze. I’ll test this tonight and report back here.

[chibbParticipant]

Hi guys, if Allen and heath were prepared to host the APK files for the app this would work for Android devices, I’m not sure what the equivalent is for iOS, but it would mean that you’d have to tick the “allow untrusted sources” setting

Having demoed the x32 and seen its ETA/EQ screen I expected this to be on the sq series that we bought. I’m sad that it’s not.
