Someday we will see these ideas on more affordable desks. "Apex Ion" will tempt many, but I expect to be out of the game by then!
Street price and availability.@gafftaper ...if there's anything you wanna see up close or get an answer on, let us know.
I don't know about you, but I always start my livestream events 30 minutes early so people at home can make sure their preferred viewing method is working and audio is coming through. Fortunately, when you re-watch a live event, you can pick your starting point.15 minutes of staring at a kitchen counter while someone makes coffee and does the dishes? REALLY??

Well sure, but the platform doesn't permit trimming that off after Live?I don't know about you, but I always start my livestream events 30 minutes early so people at home can make sure their preferred viewing method is working and audio is coming through.

Yeah, my impression from my few minutes playing around with it at USITT is that it would make high level intense busking easier while also making all of the normal routines I do in my much simpler application easier too. SO much increased flexibility.
Ask @jfleenor about DFD's Overdrive Boxes for HogII.ps: suggested names for small Hog consoles - Bacon and Sausage.
Most of the "new" features on the apex look like they started on the congo to me, actually, not the hog. Its a nice incremental upgrade of hardware with some strange choices--six NICs make no sense with current offerings, I'm curious if etc has software modifications in mind that will make this more relevantRemember that part of the ETC got with the purchase of High End Systems was the Hog series of consoles and their workflows. I'm a NoizeBoy (is that sexist? IDK) so what the Lampies do with their consoles is mostly arcane to me, but when lights got "intelligent", Hog pretty much ruled the music concert market until the Grand MA arrived. Several competitors (a couple of which are still around) but little market penetration for most.
I see @gafftaper 's point about more flex, and understand @aeh20s observation of existing owner/user reactions. ETC still has brand/model options for those who do not need what the Apex can do. I don't know if the Apex will be a cash cow for ETC but I fully get why it's a product and I expect ETC will sell a few.
