164W is 10-20% more expensive.

Did you go through the documentation here?

Always hated that function, turned it off on the DM2000 and DiGiCo.

And PFL-ing the channel on the console, channels sound normal?
If so, then clearly something’s wrong with your DAW software, DAW software settings, drivers, driver settings, or the Waves card. Start swapping till you find the cause.

I agree. Check the tracks with your headphones on the computer to see if they sound normal. That will determine if the issue is with the recording or the playback at least.

If you’re using shielded CAT cable, you’d be best to get a shielded coupler.

Thanks everyone. Just got a Surface Pro at an amazing price.

I’d like to save a little money and try the Surface Go. Do you think the lesser computing power of the CPU they use will be a problem? I’m not sure how much computing power Director needs…

What CPU does the Yoga have?

Thoughts?

So… anyone (like me) who thinks a self-labelling stage box with LCD strips is pretty freakin’ cool, please let A&H know by e-mailing them. They said they would look into adding this to the dLive family if there was enough interest.

For some reason, it’s MORE expensive than the DX168! That makes no sense.

I guess that’s just the way it is?

Coming from Yamaha/Midas/DiGiCo – there’s nothing logical about the GUI on the A&H stuff. BUT… Once you know how to do something, you never forget! (Mostly because it took you a long time to figure it out!)

Any update to this? It would be nice to use one of these new lightweight touchscreens that are coming out if the mapping were able to be fixed.

I as well fully disagree with you, Mike. When the cheapest “pro” console out there, the X32, has the best iPad app going, other companies need to step it up. Price of the console has nothing to do with it. A solid iPad app is essential for modern setup and mixing. I wouldn’t spec any console anywhere, no matter the price, if it didn’t have a…[Read more]

Ok, so I just had a look at the SQ app. Wow.
It basically is everything the dLive app should be. It (and the dLive app) are only missing Scene Store/Recall, direct numeric entry of values (gain, delay, FX parameters, etc.) and a way to move to the next channel when naming. (Naming should be possible on the I/O screen as well, like the…[Read more]

What the dLive app needs that is done already in the SQ app:

Aha! Need to select the DYN8 screen (rather than the BD4/EQ4 page) to find that. Wow. Thanks!
