My current setup is a X32 main mix console, with two X32 rack units that I have set up in my studio. (Three total X32 units) I've got the two racks hooked up via Ethercon Cat 5e / AES50.
The main reason I'm considering upgrading is to expand the amount of channels available for direct recording to my DAW. X32 has 32 inputs available via USB, and appears Wing can send 48 inputs via USB? (I currently have some sub-mixing / merging of instrument signals in the rack units, but would prefer to have the direct signals from each instrument)
What are people's thoughts from migrating from X32 to Wing? Any surprises? Any additional latency issues with having 48 tracks available, or is the latency pretty much the same as X32? Also, from what I've read, sounds like I can expect the X32 racks to work flawlessly with the Wing via AES50... But has anyone had any issues with this? Any other comments for going from X32 to Wing in terms of workflow, the control surface, etc?
things get way easier to manage when you use digital snakes, I use the Midas 32 with my X32's and its awesome, with that said ..if you need that many inputs then go for it, but you will still need the snakes - not sure how combining all your X32s with the wing are going to play as nice as you want them too
