Oh. Thanks for clearing that up.
All of a sudden the Z1 just got a lot more attractive...

Yeah we has this whole massive thread on power/audio for the iPad on the NI forum. People tried every conceivable hub, connector that was available.
Fact is only the Z1, Apogee Duet (Mac), Vestax Spin and a few other devices could do both (power/audio) with a proprietary cable and of course some voodoo inside the unit.
The debate was large enough that I think this was partly responsible for NI producing the Z1 (plus other factors).
Thanks for the info Karlos.
Is this the thread you were referring to?

Well in Canada they are saying end of July now - every single time I've asked them it gets postponed - this is such a joke! You can't even get the LC-1 from unique squared.
It looks like most of the initial run has sold out.
I got my Studio 4a and i am extremely pleased with it. It's my first console and it was well worth the wait. Deckadance is a little buggy at times though so i think ill stick to traktor.
Gotta make some comment on the build quality here...
Knobs are really good, buttons seems sturdy but a bit squichy in the middle. Best controls you can get in this pricerange! No competition!
But: Printing on the aluminium comes off really easy with a bit of handgrease. I've completely rubbed off the xfader-lines with only a few hours use.
It needs a final coating after printing to be perfect imho.
The printing on the plastic holds up a lot better.
Another 5 cents from a really impressed noob :)
