Tried updating mine with other f/w anyway (don't usually care about warranties.. I'll rip open a brand new A&H DB4 just to see what's inside and if I can replace anything to trick it out!). Didn't work. I got "Update Failed" on the screen (see my previous posts)Now you're talking! This is kinda why I started the thread - this would be ideal scenario #1.Mine does.
Yes, everyone with these are moaning about this! :eek: Totally odd behaviour if you are used to decks.
Yeah, the Chan1/Chan2 headphone xfader has far to severe a slope (it's like a scracthing on/off slope!) to make accurate monitoring level adjustments simple. Master/monitor on the hp would be nice, but I fear that it would be too much re-routing of signals and the hardware may not support it.Do you mean searching with vinyl mode on, where the time keeps jumping around?The cues I still haven't quite figured out... if I set a cuepoint, and then move onto the next track, the cuepoint is still active. If I press it, I get the previous track again! - thoughts? Yeah, I get headphone hiss. It's due to the headphone amp. It's a fixed gain amp, and the volume control only controls the level going
into the amp, rather than the gain of the amp itself. As such, it's always at full volume, hence the hiss (and hence the digital noise when you alter the level). As it's headphones, I don't ever find this a problem. What with the noise coming from the speakers, it's inaudible when playing in situ.
This unit is
so nearly there, all of these issues are pretty
easily fixed, and if they were, I think I'd probably end up marrying my unit (they allow that sort of shit in the US don't they?
)
Aaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhh hhhhhh!!!!!!!!.....
Just been to AVSL/Citronic's website
here, and my MP-X10 is now
DISCONTINUED - Bastards!!!. I was an early adopter on this unit, buying it when it was still at the £500 price mark. This was
only 6 months ago. Citronic have obviously decided to throw their towel into the ring as so many other brands are buying up the OEM box and putting better firmware on it. This is a fkn joke! - apologies for that, but it is! Worried that they will abandon this and I will never get the newer firmwares. Citronic used to be based down the road from me in the UK, and as such I used to be able to rely on them... now that they have been taken over by AVSL (also own QTX & Skytec(!)), I am worried. Luckily my local sound & light shop is run by an ex-Citronic employee. Will phone him tomorrow and moan about the unit I bought from him and see what he's got to say - hopefully he may know someone who still works for Citronic.
Just love the portability of the unit. I help with free parties... my mates PA takes about an hour to set up... I can be up and running in less than 5... put unit on table, wheel in/set up my sub/sat PA (5 leads in total), run lead from genny, a few lights... GO! I am the first & last room running
The fact that I can re-purpose the unit with midi (or even vinyl) just makes it a great unit, only held back by 1 day's worth of some geek reprogramming the firmware. I am so close to nirvana, it's annoying!
