Re: Will there be an Avid S2

This maybe the sensible option for my home setup. Atleast that way if they do releases a dock V2 or S2 I will already have an extra bank of faders!

That is good to know, how do you find mixing on the iPad? I do a lot of work with film and spend quite a long time with my hands on faders.

And moving faders on the iPad sucks, but it's still better than the mouse. And (this might sound funny) I own an S3 and once in a while I see the send that I want to move on the iPad screen and just tweak it there. Sometimes that's faster than spill/flip on the S3.

Granted they are a killer combo but I was talking about the dock on its own.

Re: Will there be an Avid S2
Ha! I used the Artist Control and Mix on a big project and those 4 faders were annoying. I wanted to use them, but the alignment was off and the Control never worked well. No, I think 1 fader -or- 1+8 faders. Anything in between would be hard to bank or map. A 4-fader Dock would not be a good design.

I like your reasoning I am now thinking you might be right 8+1 makes a hell of a lot of sense. Do you use your iPad(s) solely for PT? Would you rather the S3 or a Dock and an S1? Because they are practically the same price...

2. The monitors for the S4 and S6 cost something like $7k. You’d rather pay $7k than a few hundred dollars for a refurbished iPad Air or less for some android crap? 3. This is a random rant because you seem to be pining that you want professional tools but you don’t want to pay for them. Who is being arrogant?

If I leave the studio for more than a day or two, I sometimes take the iPad with me for regular use (email, reading, etc.). When the iPad is docked, I turn off Wi-Fi and Bluetooth and run the Lightning>USB adapter>Ethernet adapter to the computer. |

Re: Will there be an Avid S2
Some random thoughts:
1-have you seen the price for Avid's screens for the S4/S6? Tablets or iPads look like a bargain 2-Refurbed iPads can be had for $150 or less(the iPad Pro is the "expensive" route) 3-I like the idea of a DOCK with an S1 on each side
