I have now updated to V1.42 - thank you for the improvements.
May I also say that I really appreciated the email and fast professional response regarding the problem with V1.40 – fantastic thank you!
In the previous threat I think there a few good suggestions that you are working on at the moment. There is however a couple things that should be on the “should be improved” list as apposed the “wish list”.
When I’m using the rotary encoder in some menu applications – it’s touchy, it moves too fast and is hard to stop at the right place or settings.
Also I love the idea of sends on rotaries; it makes the jump from analogue to digital so easy. My issue is that encoder steps are 1.5 dB – this is too much for fine tunning monitor levels. Could you make it 0.5 dB?
An button under preference to allow globally set all mix send (auxes, fx, etc) either via rotary or fader. At the moment, mix send is by default via fader. To change this to rotary will need to set at every mix send, can be time consuming and prone to mix up.
An idiot proof start up template (plug and play) for 1st time user, using a basic analouge board example like:
Left Bank 1st Layer- All input channels
Middle Bank 1st Layer- 4 Auxes, 4 Grps
Right Bank 1st Layer- 4 mtx, Mains
Start up template to come with Stereo channel inputs already properly configured (may be the last 8 channels) and only having standardised surface stereo layouts. 1st time iLive users can get confused on why one stereo channel is shown eg IP63/64 on one surface stereo channel layout and another stereo channel as occupying 2 surface stereo channels as IP61 and IP62.
Metering is sometimes not sensible enough. That may apply to a lav. channel I want to check (mic still on?). So I could use some -10db more on the bottom side of the metering.
Regarding the EQ, this is a real problem at the moment when doing corporate shows.
I tend to ring out microphones with the PEQ, using 6-8 bands of EQ.
When I use a group I have 8 bands of PEQ (channel plus group) but limited frequency frames.
GEQ is not helpful as the frequencies I want to notch out are rarely on the GEQ grid.
Same goes for output.
So either an insert PEQ (with high Q possible) or the GEQ switchable to 6 or more bands of PEQ would be nice.
I know this has been brought up Before and I’m not sure if it’s been answered but in a future Firmware update. Could we please have an Auto-Select Following Fader (or at have it as an option similar to the wy you can select addative or solo PAFL). I’ve lost count of the times I’ve jumped over to an inputs fader brough up the channel then started EQ it without Checking If I had Selected the Channel (So Annoying)
Also as a question I’ve notice on the Physical surface (iLive 80) theres an Idicate in the PreAmp Section for a (-24 +24) Digital Trim Feature but I’ve been throught the all menus and Can’tfind it anywhere,
What’s the go there is there a Digital Trim Option?
I’d love some form of signal attenuation AFTER the AD conversion. That way for quieter shows we could have decent gain levels (and thus nicer sound) without having to dance around in the sensitive areas of the faders.
That is to say I want an attenuate option (perhaps in the eq stage) which allows me to have a healthy gain level and faders at unity across the board without it being excessively loud.
Turning down the amps sometimes affects the gain a bit weird over several units however, turning down the inputs of the speaker processing would mean you can drive the desk harder which may help as long as you don’t run out of headroom in the mixer.
I got my T112 with IDR48 yesterday and played with it for a couple of hour. What i would like in the next version is the ability to link the surface layers by 2 . now you can link them all together.
This would be handy so i can link the left and midle faders together to create my input faders. first layer 1 to 20 second 21 to 41.
