< Here's a question, does Real Band allow for bi directional multichannel USB? I do know that neither Biab or RB has any kind of remote DAW control but is it possible this bi directional USB could be a workaround? Anybody know? I also have Studio One and I know that does. >

Since RB's input/output is determined by the audio interface, I surmise it will. But with Studio One, the point is mute because it does.

The X32 Core is priced more reasonably than the Air x18 and can be externally linked to a router for wireless capability. The good news is it is a complete X32 console that is operated through an Ipad. It has the complete X32 software installed. That means as an interface it is 32 inputs and 32 outputs. It is a 40 input, 25 bus mixer. It will connect as a DAW controller via HUI, Mackie or Midi. Behringer provides a free, very intuitive editing app for easy programming. There are eight pro grade effects processors.

It will require a Behringer stagebox for live mixer use but nothing but a USB cable as an interface or controller.

I have temporary custody of an X32 console and it is awesome. There is nothing comparable in its price range in my opinion. Especially if you purchase the core model. Current street price is $600 and refurbished as low as $449.

I recently worked sound at a concert with a console (not the one I have custody of ) and the setup included the Behringer SD32 snake that connects AES50 Cat 5/6 cable. It didn't break a sweat running two 18" subs and two large full range towers, 7 monitors, 21 inputs while connected to a computer running Studio One recording all the channels and sending a stereo out to the onboard USB recorder. The recent firmware upgrade to version 3 addresses new interactions and functions for the air X18 and Ipad apps.
