Mal, I should fly down and visit you some day when you have a gig. I'm seriously looking at the Ui24 right now, upgrading from a DL1608.

It is a serious upgrade!  I used my dL-1608 on literally hundreds of gigs.  Loved it.  The Ui-24 smokes it...

I’d be happy to host and really that goes for anyone in the northwest...  I’ll be on the deck at Maryhill with my band Saturday 9/22.  Noon to 5 I think.  It would be on the Maryhill Winery website.  Won’t be using the big Dell as we are cramped so I’ll be all IPad this time out.  we stuff a 4 piece with keys and drums into a space that normally holds singles and duo’s ...  It’s a fun gig in spite of that though.  Probably my last outdoor date of the season...

I personally think so, and this is the one thing I'm going to miss when trading out my Qu-PAC for a dLive.  Reliability aside, I see it as a factor of convenience - not having to pull out a computer/tablet/networking equipment just to tweak a setting before sending the gear on the road.  The Qu-PAC's onboard interface has also saved me more than once in the field when either WIFI gets iffy or my tablet needs to recharge or be tasked with something else.

That's the reason I went with the QU Pac, I wanted compactness
with a form of on board back up and depending on the show the front panel is handy for quick adjustments.

The UI24 is a real mixer and a big upgrade to the UI series.
That said I have a UI16 and it does have a place, I use it for small light weight events and carry it as a back up.

Now, that's a superb price.
Between that and the prices on the XR/X32 gear, times are unthinkably good in the tablet mixing world...

Or the digital world in general. I remember back with the Yamaha 1v and other "entry level" digital mixers came out, 24 or fewer channels and a $3000 (or more) price tag! Now you can get a similar product for a fraction of the cost.

On sale is reconditioned.  It is still very tempting.

Just ordered 1.  Factory reconditioned comes with full Manu warranty so if anything goes south, will still be good to go.  Already have the Ui16 which has worked out very well for small gigs.  Assuming this unit holds up, it will eventually replace my Ui16.

Wow that's a good price.

Can anyone confirm something that I can't (while surfing the web on my phone).
Do the outputs have Xover filters?   And are Matrix mixes possible (using the Auxes I assume).

I know these are simple (RTFM) questions, but I'm having trouble finding it quickly, and this deal may sell out fast.

Already sold out. I tried to jump in but they wanted $125 for shipping and $150 for sales tax to Canada. Not that great of a deal after that for us up north.
