Re: iPad
And...quite frankly...cool as the new product is from iConnectivity, it still falls well short of what should be available:

I could buy another iPad for the price of those interfaces. 
What's wrong with a cable connector, and why can't Apple get their shit together and support USB MIDI like every other device on the planet?

Re: iPad
I'm glad that you don't know what you would need this for, becuase I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around it as well. They're talking all iOS, and there's a big ole' honking ethernet jack on it. If it had built-in WiFi networking and a rechargeable battery, then I think I would get it, but that doesn't appear to be the case.
Okay, I'll play along. I'm a pro musician. I'm in my hotel room. I take out my iPad and my iConnectMUSE. Now what happens? I sure don't have a wired network to hook into in that hotel room, and even if I did, what would I do with it?iConnectivity wrote: If you're a... professional musician composing in a hotel room or on tour...

Just read the press release & I figure the idea with the ethernet jack is low-latency MIDI control ie Lemur & such?Hidden Driveways wrote:I'm glad that you don't know what you would need this for, becuase I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around it as well.

I just love that image though. There's SO MUCH CONNECTIVITY I actually can't tell what's going on...
To be fair though, it appears what they are doing differently is *multiple* (I presume independent) stereo outs. Has anyone else done that? I don't know if there's even any apps at the moment that would take advantage of that other than that DJ app.
I have to say I thought we'd be seeing a lot more audio manufacturers touting their class compliant stuff for use with the CCK. Amirite in thinking with a powered hub + about €150 you can get most of this functionality?

Only 2 channels possible with the iPad regardless of the app. My guess? You can use the two inputs for either channel, or 1 input from your iPad and another from your 2nd iPad.

Re: iPad
The Jobs action figure just got the axe.
I mean, if mutherfucking CHINA of all places can't produce a bootleg Jobs doll then WHAT THE FUCK GOOD ARE THEY?
And, more importantly, this demonstrates the ABSOLUTE POWER OF APPLE.
