Frequently Asked Questions
While it offers some synchronization capabilities, the CV/Gate implementation is basic, so it's not ideal for complex modular control.
File transfer via USB 2.0 can be slow, especially with large video files; a faster interface would be beneficial for serious users.
The 2.4in OLED is functional for lyrics, but smaller text may be difficult to read at a glance; consider tablet projection for larger venues.
