Hi Jeanette,
Hi Michael,
I will have to run the app on an ipad, which is fine. Does the XR18
remember all the settings across power cycles, once they are made?
Will the device run if the app is not open on a controlling device?
The iPad is not strictly my own and so I can't rely on it being near
me whenever I record or play.
I just closed the app for a test and the XR18 still works and is playing
music ;-).
Whenever I start the app it asks me if I want to transfer the current
settings "mixer->pc" or "pc->mixer" so you can decide on whatever you
need. And of course with "mixer->pc" you restore the last settings on
the XR18. You can also save setups on a computer, pad and so on. Very
useful if you have different live situations with different instrument
setups and so on.
I also use jack_mixer in my setup to have a volume control for stuff
that runs on my computer and goes via USB to the stereo port (channel
17/18) on the XR18. If you wire jack_mixer (or any other Jack aware
mixer program) accordingly you could also have a volume control without
needing the app. You would only need the app to unmute it.
And another thing: I use external studio monitors connected to the main
outs of the XR18. With this setup I never experienced any latency
issues. (But again I am not a professional musician and others might
have other experiences and see it differently.)
Hope this helps again,
Michael
