Members depulse Posted January 19, 2012 Members Share Posted January 19, 2012 A whole bunch of new Behringer stuff. Looks like they have copied Alesis electronic drums and iPad dock, Focusrites red USB interfaces and Steinbergs modular MIDI controllers. http://www.behringer.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members donaldcrunk Posted January 19, 2012 Members Share Posted January 19, 2012 a couple more new things from the modular world: this asshole has a new module whatever some new cases from Monorocket - http://monorocket.com/ the cool slimline one belongs to Nick, a very cool fellow and wiggling pal up in chicago - and the orange one belongs to the great Scott Jaeger aka Harvestman of course. cool designs!

Because you get a touchscreen OS and hi-res display if you built your product around an iPad. That 16ch Mackie/iPad mixer looks interesting. Also the Yamaha iCloud app for Motif XF....record your XF wirelessly to iPad which then uploads to SoundCloud for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We bomb France tonight That interface will really encourage great experimentation and on this type of synth it is almost part of the sound sculpting.

Did you see the dimensions? 12"x15"x2". btw they have some sound demos up if anyone's interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We teamed up with Spalwart Industries to create our own team sneaker with rubber side pocket for electronics. This is the original and only sneaker that was available behind the iron curtain. Still made in Slovakia. Same factory. Da. TS-1 only $ 149. i'm pretty alright with that shoe actually! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is VERY cool to me. - iPad isn't ABSOLUTELY required, the unit still does its job without one - create custom EQ settings onscreen for each instrument - remove feedback via custom onscreen EQ - the unit stays onstage with the band (or at snake endpoint), soundman uses an iPad from FOH to run sound. No more need to run a snake into FOH for mixing. - band members with their own iPad can control their own mix via wifi - records all 16 channels to SD card at 24bit resolution -OMG - record a soundcheck, go into the house with an iPad, play it back and adjust the mix. Of course this mix would sound different without the live drums and guitar amps, so this method couldn't be completely relied upon. Laugh if you want, but that sounds great.

Of course this mix would sound different without the live drums and guitar amps, so this method couldn't be completely relied upon. Laugh if you want, but that sounds great. i don't know what to tell you man, i'm sorry. if this is to accompany a PA on sticks into a club / church environment, one where there is no sound guy, then i'm sure it would work fine. as would any small mixer. SPL levels are not that high, and source is going to rival the reinforcement in perceived volume to the audience. so what you do with the mix matters a great deal less, depending on the circumstance of course. but if you take this line 6 mixer-thing into any place that has a PA already, anyplace bigger than a club environment, then i have no idea how you would integrate it. and no self respecting sound guy is going to agree to take the iPad you hand him and replace his whole FOH setup with that. there is no benefit. he's certainly not going unplug his snake, plug it into your boobideblah, and then fiddle with the doohicky while the audience waits for a show to happen. he's going to use the FOH mixer that is either a. already there or b. he brought with him. in regards to sound check using a previous recording of practice or something - that's probably fine as far as figuring out... probably just EQ, but there are lots of other reasons it is important to sound check using actual expected volume levels etc. i would not recommend replacing your sound check with this method even in part! this is coming from the perspective of someone who has done his time in the live production environment, and not in lil' clubs either. i hope i never have to ever go back. now, on second thought i was probably mildly too harsh on this little line six. i can see it being very useful in something like a band practice space, for a group that doesn't have anyone techy involved and they just want to jam. very cool for that. and for small gigs that they don't expect a sound guy at, like i mentioned above. but again, how much is this thing (not to mention the PA SPEAKERS that line six wants to sell you with it!)? like the Alesis etchasketch, it's all very candy-coated and edible looking. i think that's for a reason. the reason is to sell equipment to people that want to avoid that whole annoying 'learning about audio' thing.
