Cross on Linx 7 Tablet

Postby CJB on 12 Jan 2015, 23:22

Picked up a Linx 7 Tablet before Christmas as I needed a copy of MS Office and they were on offer for £59.99 on eBay including a year's Office 365 subscription - what's not to like about essentially a free tablet?

Anyway, curiosity got the better of me, so I decided to try Cross DJ 3.3.9 on the Linx earlier. The tablet is a full Windows 8.1 system, but only having an Atom CPU (albeit a quad core) and 1GB RAM I wasn't sure it'd cope with my U-Mix Control Pro and Cross DJ.

Turns out I shouldn't have doubted it! Cross DJ seems to run fine, although I'm yet to test it with full length tracks (only used the demo songs), but this little machine powers my U-Mix (via the OTG USB adapter that comes with it) and allows effects, looping, etc whilst having 2 tracks in the mix.

Whilst its not something I'd necessarily risk rigging with, it's pretty cool being able to use "proper" Cross on a 7" tablet!

I'm going to have a play about with it some more, so if anyone's got any questions then let me know - seems like a cool potential backup/travel setup to me!

Thanks for reporting. UncleVibes mentioned he uses a surface that works.
I guess your video performance is limited by the mem. You might want to consider to disable it if you don't use it.

It does make it easier to have a backup as you can use the same data and collection.
Keep us posted.
