Re: S3 vs Two S1's
Thanks, are there any plans to add a preference to bank by the number of surfaces available? For example, to be able to bank by 16 if you have two S1's and so forth.

Re: S3 vs Two S1's
I travel a fair bit and I personally feel that a couple S1 is probably more what I'm looking for. I can have 2 of them for my mixing rig in my studio and I need to travel I can just chuck one in my bag easy. I don't really need the pres on the S3... I have quite a few mixers friends who own an S3 and are thinking about getting a couple S1 instead for the same reason... the price difference is not that much when adding the tablets, but it is the modularity that makes it great for what I need it to do.

Is there anyway I could help push for that feature? I just got my two S1s and that is the only fault I've experienced with these amazing units :) Thanks! |

Re: S3 vs Two S1's
I too am considering this move from S3 to two S1's. Mainly for a bit of space-savings and the S6 style metering.
However, I use "solo clear" constantly on my S3, is there a similar feature on the S1? I guess I also have to consider the Dock too, would be good to have that sweet master fader. Justin |

Re: S3 vs Two S1's
Yep! If you create a EUCON command for your chosen button in EuControl, "Clear Solo" is tucked away under "Global". You could program it so it clears both Solos and Mutes with a single button press if you really wanted to...

Re: S3 vs Two S1's
I'm not sure that anybody has mentioned the S3-only feature "Multi-Master Mode". This has been a KILLER workflow for me!
I have another setup that I have been used to which includes: 4 Artist Mix/1 Artist Control/1 Avid Control/1 JLCooper Surround Panner for ES I thought I needed and wanted more faders. The more the merrier, right? WRONG! With S3+Dock and Multi-Master Mode, I don't need ANYTHING else and it's all comfortably right in front of me. I wouldn't swap for multiple S1 over the S3. I'm very happy with this!
