Sweetwater uploaded a video showcasing the Touchmix features. Looks VERY easy to use!

Shave off $300 and maybe I would consider it...

working with a DJ that has one, weekend 10/25.  Bringing in my ipad to connect. 
Wedding with 3 to 5 wireless mics.   The con I am seeing is the provided wifi plug has a 50 ft range. 

Would also like to see what security is setup on wifi to prevent a hijack.

I was about to purchase one, but then noticed the Mackie DL1608 price dropped $100.  I don't know if the drop was in response to the release of the TouchMix and/or Behringer's announcement of the new X-Air line of small format digital boards, but figured I'd exercise a little patience to see what happens to pricing.  I'm in no hurry.

I ended up buying a TouchMix 16.  I did look at the DL1608.  My primary function for this mixer is Wedding Ceremonies and Cocktail-Trio's bands. 

Here are some of my thoughts: While the initial price of the DL1608 is cheaper, I would have needed to source another iPad to operate the mixer.  My current iPad is 'tied' to the LS9 because I have to mix on the side of the stage.  If I wanted to keep the iPad loose, I would have need to buy a router.  Also the TouchMix comes with a decent carry bag/case; Mackie was additional.  With seeing those differences, I choose the TouchMix 16 due to its "all in one" set-up.  I am not saying the Mackie is a bad little console, I just wanted something with less things that I needed to remember when running around the venue (usually a Hotel) and setting up 2-3 PA systems.

I wonder how terrible all if these tiny mixers will be with the incredibly bad Wifi issues of ios8.  8.0.2 has not fixed the issues of losing connection.

I keep hearing about all these connectivity issues. What routers/APs are you guys using? 

I've been running a cheap ass $40.00 Belkin home wireless router/AP for over a year every weekend and have never lost my iPad connection to my board during soundcheck or performance with  any iOS update,including 8.0.2.   Have read similar statements by others on this board. My only conclusion is it's the routers you're using.

I use two different Airport Expresses, an HTC phone using portable wifi hotspot and a Lnksys.  It loses connection with all of the!  Apple screwed the pooch on this update, BAD!

I have finally rid myself of the connection issue gremlins! Since ios7 I have no longer had the dreaded connection loss to my LS9. The other products I have that utilize the ipad for mixing have also been rock solid, even with the ios8 release.
