Default Re: Avid S1...I am excited!

Thanks Eddie, that's good to hear. I'll definitely only use one unit, so the little overhang wouldn't be a major issue for me.

I don't know maybe I have ADD - but judging by product picture any tablet that does not align not just tracks but on the outside physical edges is going to look clunky.

Looks nice and tight here:

Obviously its not the same as a 12" tablet but the widescreen 10.5 Androids look good even if they don't quite fill the width.

Does anyone know if the units will operate via Wifi? I was looking and trying to get a peek at the rear but I cant find this specified though I think the PTExperts guy mentioned it was wireless. Nothing in the specs about whether it needs a NIC cable like the artist. Im hoping its all 5g or better.

Yeah I was at the AES show today and they had all three of the S1 tablets set up wireless.

I think i will pull the trigger on one as soon as available. I really want the metering and I can sell the mix if I like it. I have no shortage of older ipads at this point and I am sure in a year or two there will be many 12" pros to be had used at a decent price as is the way with Ipads.Thanks for confirming. I can see myself with two eventually. If I just buy two outright I will drive to Portland and spend the 250 in taxes I would save on going to wine country. :)

Just got this back from Sweetwater and it appears the actual S1 is still hard wired.

The Avid S1 plugs into a Ethernet connection just like the Artist Mixes did.

The S1 hardware are eucon wired of course and the ipads/tablets are wireless. No one said the S1 was wireless.

sjgam a few posts prior worded it to make it seem like they were. I wondered if he meant just tablets but I was curious if the actual units could run wirelessly.

Got it but it is the tablets, not the actual S-series Units just like the artist series they need a eucon cabled connection. The tablets are wireless as they are with the Avid Dock.
