Android +1
Windows +1
I read alot about Android and pro audio world. All the time they said I/O latency, but i don’t want to make tracks with Android, i’m live engineer i just want to control mixer, nothing else. I know that insde ILive, GLD and QU mixers run Linux (some distribution).
Please give these requests a break. Let A&H work on the mixers firmware. At the end it is a live mixer. And there is still a lot of detail work there to do.
it’s a live mixer - having it work with the kit that’s out there is kind of the point.
qu-pad is probably too far, but qu-you on android/winpho is a relatively small development for the MAJORITY who don’t pay the apple tax, instead preferring good value hardware…
I understood “windows” in this sugestion as further windows DAW integration. Before that I would prefer a lot of small stuff that has been suggested here.
And yes, now that there is a Qu-you, wanting the same app for android seems reasonable…
As for yhe Qu-Pad, I bought a used iPad for 100€. It works, I use it solely for mixing. I don’t see any need for an android app for this purpose.
Now, if you want your band mates to set their own mixes, yes, they will now feel racially discriminated because they don’t belong to the bitten apple.
I just wish we could give these requests for features that far from live mixing a little break of let’s say like three years so A&H can work on bettering the mixer in the mean time.
No offense explicitly intended

Of course not, we request Android support for control apps of the A&H products since 4 years now, so the waiting time should be over, and it is possible to program apps for Android, see my last post.

The features are not far from live mixing… and btw A&H says: “Compact digital mixers for live, studio and installation”
So it is ok to request support for the most used OS families (Windows and Android) world wide…
and btw A&H says: “Compact digital mixers for live, studio and installationOk, that's an argument. I probably will then have to mobilize my own mob to get the rest of the small stuff I need. At least as long as there is no other mixer with the direct USB multitrack recording feature.
Ok,
I’ve got a question, why not just use an iOS device?
An iPad isn’t very expensive…and considering the advantages in stable usable applications already running…
Just sayin,
Because sometimes someone want’s no apple device
isn’t it that hard to understand?
and iPads are expensive compared with some android devices
iPads/iPhones/iPods are expensive devices, particularly when you already have a device that does everything else in your pocket.
It’s easily several hundred dollars/pounds for a single application…
Basically duplicating what’s already being carried around…
Androis based software is coming:

still the better app on my phone
but no development for a long time now
Maybe a option for Allen Heath to update this android app?
The only app I trust for mixing in a Live situation is the official app from Allen Heath, and not a custom build by a second company.
why not?
try it first… it’s only a remote control, nothing else.
Cancel Ethernet to stop the app, that easy.
Why don’t they just build an HTML5-based web interface into the board’s networking? I’ve seen this method used very successfully on a number of hardware designs. It would easily transfer to a sound board environment. Then not only would an app be as simple to make as a basic full-page web browser locked to the board’s IP address, it could be used from a web browser on any platform. It would be pretty much universal and usable on any device that exists now and into the future, with almost no work programming apps for various devices needed.
You’re making the assumption that the mixer runs an operating system, which for GLD and iLive, granted is there. But Qu is entirely its own software from bare metal, and an HTML5 based web server would have to be written especially.
I’m curious how these HTML5 based interfaces compare to native apps, particularly in the response times of both controls and metering.
no comment, just a link

it’s a demo until they release the mixers to the public…
and by the way… the first companies build android apps for their audio products
Can someone clarify to me what does and doesn’t work with this mixer on Windows? When it says no ‘DAW Support’ for windows does that mean I wouldn’t be able to mix tracks digitally from my DAW using MIDI at all on windows? Only mix and capture live sound? Do the motorized faders work on DAW’s when running Windows? I’m new to mixing desks and am very intrigued by this one, but only for a Windows environment.
