iConnectivity PlayAUDIO1U Review 

Great review. Love to see the love for the new piece. I appreciate the love for the new screen setup. I spent a bunch of time trying to get the simpliest wording and make the quickest and most important info show.

Love the video and the small playback rig history overview at the start. I would love to see a 2U too, with the connections (and more like more MIDI din ports, adat, bnc) the back. That locking IEC (preferable with the small metal outside lock, so you can use regular cables) would be great too. Usb A to C cables added can still be handy if you are running out of C ports. I would probably still make a patch panel to keep the connectors safe and to add more options.

Great review!!

hey eric love this vid! was looking for some advice on a rig. Trying to combine 1 Mic, 1 Bass(DI or Virtual), Novation Launchkey 61(Midi), Maschine Mk3(2 outs), Launchpad(Midi), Midi Fighter Twister, and 4 V.1 Sunhouse Sensory Perc Sensors. Would be a total of 8-10 inputs. Been considering the Play Audio 12 for awhile but im unsure of what to sum all of those channels to before sending. Will be running IEMs and moderate lighting in the future as well. Do I need something like a Scarlett 18i20 or a M32? Trying to keep cost down as much as possible. Happy to provide more info if needed, cheers!

Nice review! Now that leaves the question, will you eventually get another pass through panel with a power con for your Apollo interface or just simply route that out the back with a TRS to XLR cable and call it a day?

iConnectivity says the XLR outs are also phantom power protected, whereas the PA12 they were "phantom power resistant".

Nice review! I'd wish it also were some kind of digital output like Dante or Madi on this thing too. But I guess you can't have everything unfortunately. How do you prefer splitting the signal for FOH and IEM ? I was thinking that as of today, I don't need more than 6 outputs for playback. I could split each channel like the same signal goes to say output 1 and 7, 2 and 8 etc. Else you will also need a splitter like Art S8 too I guess.

Hey Eric. I know you mostly build rack-mountable playback rig but I'd like to know what you think about the M-Live B.beat?

Hey Eric can you link to where you got the rack mount case for your current setup in the video? I've just bought the PlayAUDIO1U , so looking for something exactly like that. Cheers!

just got hired as a Keyboard tech for a BIG band, but one of my new duties is triggering samples in real time on a midi keyboard along with the band through ableton, we need a redundant rig and was looking at the Play Audio 12 or this for the redundancy and outputs. one song has playback tracks but the rest is me live triggering, will the play audio 12 be good for that, and sync them correctly through 1 board? Life sine work even if the song has no playback? Can ya steer me in the right direction?

Can you combine 2 units to get 24 Outputs, seamless? Anyone? Thank You!

Unfortunately the PA12 is officially noted as discontinued on the IConnectivity website. Such a bummer

Are there any alternatives?
