What are your thoughts on The new UC Surface 2.0?

Big step forward !
Metering is a bit slow , especially the gate meter , but far better than the "dancing" meters in the previous versions . Instant fx access : just what I needed ! Light / dark colour schemes : will be very useful this summer with outdoor events Some wishes / thoughts .... When in "sync select" with my CS18ai I have to push solo to sync with UC , select button doesn't sync , better name is "sync solo" (even better is sync with select button ) Wish it had some small "led" to see when a limiter kicks in Gates on every aux and on/off on every parametric eq band + on/off eq seems a bit excessive to me , but I guess that's more a RM thing than a UC thing... |
I love the Device Display Modes, and with multiple iPads or a computer plus iPad with Sync Select on it's very cool... but these modes should not be buried in the Settings page, there should be a quick access from the main Mix screen.
Device Display Mode. |
Just updated.
Ipad app a lot better to use. And good on the Mac app - Nicer look and feel with better personalisation. On the whole looking good. 1 Thing and I may have missed something if anyone can help. On my MacBook pro I cannot edit the mix or channel names at, can on iPad, and I have switched on and off the "show edit popup" and lots of other things!! Any ideas? Still need to run some sound trough it to see how it goes. Cheers |
I ran firmware update on my 2 RM32 yesterday, because I still was on 7784. Everythng went perfect. Also the upgrade on UC 2.0 on MAC,PC and iPad. So far UC2.0 looks very good, much better Look & Feel. You need to get used to the new look but everything works great. iPad is a bit slow, but I think that's due to the fact, that I still have iPad2.
Two points: - up to now, I didn't find out, what the reason could be to show the main out fader twice on the screen. - colorizing faders is, waht I was waiting for. But I in my view the meter-bridge should show the same colors. That would male it easier to indicate, what I'm looking on. But that's just minor. |
derejetesfaye1 wrote i use the following workaround: just assign all used channels to a filter DCA (i call it "all"). So you get only the channels You want to see.

Everything seems to function as before.
Looks cleaner. Just have to get reacquainted with the interface. The Qmix app seems to react much better. However a cascaded setup is more cumbersome on the iPad and computer. Our setup is a SL64.AI, two cascaded 32AI mixers. It has always been annoying to have to tab back and forth between mixers. Now you are forced to click settings, to expose the tabs. click the desired mixers tab, then click the settings again to return back to main screen. Unless I'm missing something this is a step back for sure. Not really surprising though. There has always been functions that don't work in a cascaded system. I can only speak to the AI not sure how it is with the RM or Series lll. |
"When a channel is selected, the Settings icon for that channel is visible in the left side of the Fat Channel. After pressing the Settings icon, the following controls will be available at the far left of the Fat Channel: ... 9. Stereo Linking. Links the current channel to the adjacent channel to create a stereo pair." (Quote from the Software Reference Manual Section 5.2.2 Channel Settings)
It's there where it has always been, but it's called "Stereo Linking" now. |
Yesterday i did the first gig with UC2.0:
ipad: great performance, a big step forward, much better fader feel minus: -sometimes no signal showing on meters after exiting app, then restart of UC necessary -no way to exit demo mode, restart is the only way to enter "real" mixer mac book pro 2009: UC2.0 very slow reaction, same on smaart spectrograph, so i went back to the older version until this is solved
