Frequently Asked Questions
It's generally reliable, but a strong, stable Wi-Fi network is crucial; signal drops can interrupt the display.
It's primarily a playback device, but it does feature A/D converters, allowing for basic multitrack recording onto the internal storage.
The B.Beat Manager is essential for file creation and editing; it's fairly intuitive but may lack some advanced features found in more professional DAW software.
