Kalypso Shortcomings, or "when are they gunna do something about that?"
It would be very unfair (not to mention impossible) to post a complete list of Software Bugs here, since corrections are being issued quite regularly. If I'm late in updating my site, and Thomson brings out a fix, I'd be misrepresenting them, so just be aware of that. When it comes to bugs, this section will contain things that I consider to be major problems. Also listed are things that haven't yet been included, even though there are buttons present for them.
First up, what I think is the most serious bug of all...
Fader Position after Delegation
This is a problem I've encountered many times on-air. It really pisses me off!
If you are delegated to the Primary Partition of an M/E and wipe the fader part-way, then delegate to the Secondary Partition and move the fader, then redelegate back to the Primary, any movement of the fader will cause the Primary's wipe to jump to the current fader location. And this problem also happens on a K2 panel when you switch the Bank Delegate between one M/E and another. What's marketed as a selling-point is a deadly trap!
C'mon, guys. This can't be much different from an E-Mem recalling a position different to the fader on a GVG-300, and it worked sensibly. (I know you're working on it; I'm waiting on it. It seems to me the major problem is that multiple control panels trying to change a shared resource simultaneously would cause a headache. Just make a policy decision about what to do in this case, and do it! It can hardly be worse than having a transition happen uncommanded.)
If you have a tip that you think would suit this category, please email me using the Contact link above.
