@nicola - Is a dedicated offline editor still in the works, or is the development centered around the MixPad application only? (Or, can you not say - which I will understand of course)
@OrionX - There is no plan for a separate application.
Seriously, when!

Is There any news about The offline editor? I have the feeling that, while A&H made a huge jump ahead in sound quality compared to their competition, theyare way behind on this end. The sq is becoming a great tool for the pros but i still see so many of them using an x32 just for the editor capabilities. I would love to see this done soon rather then later…
Thanks
Hi Dpnh & Superorko,
Can you explain what is missing from MixPad currently that would require a separate editor?
Thanks

So I just downloaded the new mixpad 1.43 and while it has the offline editor I noticed that the “custom” layers is now gone while not connected to the mixer and the layers now match the board layers depending on which mixer you set it to. Sq 5-6-7 …my question is … when I’m connected will I have the “custom “ layers back so I can set up the workflow I prefer on the iPad custom layers which would be different than the layers on the mixer???
@nzdave It works on Windows 7 here, so it’s not 10 only.
Hi Doyle,
Once you go online in SQ MixPad you will indeed have custom layers available.
Thanks!

If you mean on-line as connected to mixer, then that defeats the purpose of off line editing.
With the GLD editor it is just like having the mixer. My GLD is in a touring case and is only unpacked at shows. I need to totally configure it off line between shows.
Same thing for SQ now that it seems to be replacing the GLD.
I can’t unpack the SQ to prepare for every show. I need to bring a USB (and spare) with show files to the gig and load it (before there is even a show network).
Sometimes I think the folks in SQ development don’t actually use the mixers in real situations.
but you can configure nearly the whole system
it’s only the Custom Layers for the MixPad app and some smaller things what’s missing at the moment
I agree that it is very annoying to lose features,
but I guess there was a reason for doing this
Is there any way to turn off the meters in offline mode of the MixPad?
Having trouble assigning a soft key bring up say the fx unit on fx send 1, or the L/R Graphic. Is there a way to do that?
Not having a true full function offline editor is disappointing. Plus a more detailed screen running real time on a laptop would be super helpful since the console doesn’t have an external video out.
