My favorite and "go to" console has been the GrandMA for years.
I'm always interested and open to considering new consoles (or new versions of existing consoles) but throughout the years, even with some other great consoles coming along, there seems to have always been a few features the GrandMA would have at the time that would "kill" any possibility of me seriously considering changing my preferred console. (And it has always seemed to remain a step ahead for me and my preferences/needs/wants - as soon as other consoles would add the equivalent of my favorite GrandMA features, GrandMA would add new unique features that become my new favorites.)
Currently a couple of those personal "killer" features for me in the GrandMA are:
1) the Stage view - Most of the time I don't need or even want a full visualizer. But I love having an on-board simple live representation of the rig, both while programming and while running. Plus I love its "touch to focus" for movers.
2) RGB+ color mixing/picker - I love that it incorporates methods of including color attributes beyond just RGB (i.e. RGBA, RGBW, etc.) in its color mixing/picker.
Granted, everyone has their own personal preferences and so there are features of other consoles that they consider their personal "killer" features that keep them preferring those consoles over GrandMA or others. But those are a couple of mine (at this time), and I'm just curious if anyone can suggest another console that includes both of those features... I haven't found any, but maybe I've missed one (or more).
