Xone: K2 Thread
Xone: K2 Thread Posted on: 30.09.2011 by Romelia Stankard Wow this looks promissinghttp://www.allen-heath.com/uk/Produc...neK2&SubCatId= So if you link two together with the ethernet cable through USB, will it 'merge' the soundcard so you have a 4 channel soundcard? If it does then you could bring two to a gig, hook them together with ethernet and not need another audio interface and have a 4 channel soundcard. It kind of sucks they put one 1/8" on the front instead of having both outputs in the back. It makes it a little awkward if you wanted to run both outputs to separate channels on the mixer, now you have to run a cable to the front. Also remember you have the option to run each channel in traktor mono so you could use one of them as a 4 channel soundcard with a few adapters (like you would with an audio 2 or 4). Plus a lot of systems are mono anyway. I really like the idea of having one or two of these with a DB2 or DB4 for a home setup then just take them to your gig with a laptop and you have an audio interface to use already in your controller with the house mixer. I love the X1s but I might have to give them up for these, i would love to get my hands on one. | |

Nedra Fresneda 30.09.2011 | I'll wait for a model without a soundcard to replace my X1 |

Kandy Ahdoot 30.09.2011 | If this is made of metal like the 1D then I will buy in a heart beat. |
Romelia Stankard 30.09.2011 | I'll take it as long as it is priced near the Xone: 1D which was $299-$329 when they were at their peak of popularity. |
Chas Giraldez 30.09.2011 | Its as good as mine!!! |
Romelia Stankard 30.09.2011 | Also, that button grid looks perfect to put a midifighter mapping on.... |
