6 Month Dock Review: Video link
So, after some careful consideration I felt compelled to put this together. Please, I understand it doesn't touch on ALL of the things that still need to be addressed but it does cover some basics for the people out there looking into buying this thing. Again, these issues have gone on unaddressed for some time now and AVID's waning response is troublesome. I'd LOVE to make a follow up to this saying most of these things have been fixed and the product functions as hoped for.. AVID the ball is in your court.

Great video. You could have also mentioned that the ALT automation buttons on the left stop working during editing and you have hit the Alt button a few times to get them to work. This is SO annoying if you use the advanced automation features. And that the buttons just under the iPad also de-focus themselves during editing and stop working. As you mentioned at the end, Avid used to reply to problems and suggestions here in the forum but have now completely stopped which leads me to believe that that's it for the Dock, they have no interest in making it work properly and have moved on.

Re: 6 Month Dock Review: Video link
All so true... you were actually too kind on the device.
EVERYTHING Avid seemingly does is throw something out with broken functionality and then go silent.... never addressing SEVERE issues. They release products with potential but they never actually see it through to fruition. I start to wonder if anyone at AVID actually does legitimate work using their own tools... AVID is so far behind the game and it's just a horrid user experience with their control surfaces and software. |

Re: 6 Month Dock Review: Video link
FWIW I love the Dock. Fast, deeply programmable and portable. Sure, the knob kinetics aren't perfect, but that's a small thing compared to the huge leap forward the Dock made from other surfaces in this size category.

Spoons, yea. I should have mentioned that as well. Even the buttons on the right hand side need to be pressed a few times for them to kick in... All in all I want to love this thing.. if only they would squash the issues.... |

My issue is that they clearly don't listen to their pro user base... They're clueless about our real needs otherwise they might have tried to iron out the Video Engine over the last couple years they've had now. I just don't have faith in Avid to do even the littlest of things... I so wish I was proven wrong. And in terms of the Icon... again the issue I've addressed is their new controllers lack some of the awesome features their old hardware had.... like PLUGIN FOCUS to name just one. Everything that comes out of AVID truly is botchy and unreliable. When's the last time we've gotten any direct response from AVID in this forum? I can't even remember. |

Re: 6 Month Dock Review: Video link
very true Bobby.
I'm considering to switch over our systems to Nuendo, of there is no change in the next half of the year. Cheers Maik
