The Dock is now shipping!
Quote:
I guess the quality is matching the S3. Same fader, buttons and touch buttons. The surface is not exactly like the S3. S3 have a rubber feeling, and the Dock is more solid plastic. But understand me right: it's not "cheap". For me this is not a problem at all, and it visually looks identical. In addition to music production I do a lot of dubbing for TV. Every automation functions is right there. Select tracks on the iPad, press "Do to sel"(ected) and press one of the automation types. Or press an automation type and then a track on the iPad. Fast and easy! I've owned and used for a while 3 Artist Mix, Artist Control and Artist Transport. This is soooooo much better! I've also owned a Slate MTi, and I really liked the Batch Commander. But with S3, Dock and the iOS app I don't look back. Last edited by ha2dorff; 05-25-2016 at 06:45 PM. |

I wanted to check that you have the latest appset (XML) installed though as it has important mappings for Dock buttons and better soft keys assignments. Looking at the small soft keys in the pic it looks like you don't have that. See the "DAW Setup" section here for installing the current XML: http://avid.force.com/pkb/articles/faq/Dock-Support Let me know. Thanks!

Thanks, Kyle.
Yes, I think you're right. Can you confirm that it's right now by looking at at small soft keys? The other picture shows user page 1 (page 147) that I know have changed. Thanks :) |

Thank you for taking the time to post this. It's very helpful to me. Your comparison with the Artist series is particularly useful since I have 2 Mix, 1 Control and 1 Transport right now. Like you I use the automation features a lot. About the only other thing I'm researching is if there are any Artist Control or Transport features I'd lose by going to the Pro Tools Dock. I haven't found any yet. I'll probably get the Air 2 first, since I have other uses for that, and play with the Control App and then move out from there. Thank you again! Andy |

Artist Control: I can't see anything you will miss. You just get a far better screen (eh... that you have to pay in addition if you not own an iPad...) Transport: on the Artist Transport You're used to buttons that you can reach right over the wheel. On the Dock you have buttons to the right of the wheel, and horizontal touch strip right under. So anyway you have to get used to the change. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help. |

So, I think at most, because of the way I use the Artist components, I'll lose the dedicated master fader. That's very minor. I also seem to forget that there is a second wheel on the Transport at times :) Thank you for the help. Your certainly helping to push me towards going this route. Andy |
