Agree that latency is very low and response is smooth. Pleasantly surprised by how good this is for workflow.
So the Mono core software takes over the pallet gear stuff as well if u mix the 2? ... just that a contact of ours offered me a cheap PG starter set for my son to go with his Traveller kit so want to make sure before we take it off him and agree a price that suits ... cheersYes, as long as you connect them to the new Monogram core, you can mix & match both generations.
The height difference is definitely a matter of personal preference. What I've found works great is to have the Monogram modules closest to me, depth-wise, and set up the Palette modules as a taller back row to the console. This gives the slimline Monogram modules in front where they're easiest to rest your hand on, while the taller Palette modules are still easy to reach when situated further away.
Have u managed to get them to work together on the new software at all?I have one or two older Palette Gear kits that I will probably be selling soon, as I have 2 x of the Monogram consoles now (based in Europe) if anyone is interested.
Both versions are good, although their newer design is indeed more compact and better designed all around.
not sure if this helpsMonogram and Cubase, how does it work?
You can create and save multiple profiles that you can then customize by instrument.So basically the controller is set up once for all? No dynamically switching according to plug in?
Lets us know what they say ... as this will affect all customers who have both I guess and are on the brink of upgrading .... real shameHmmm...just got out my old Monogram and Palette Gear components, and at first it connected fine to the Creator app, but then I upgraded and now the Creator app doesn't recognize the modules. Any ideas? Sent a support message to the makers, but in the meantime, seeing if I can get it up and running.
I'm on an M1 MacBook Pro running Ventura.
The modules light up and seem to connect to the computer fine, but the Creator app no longer will recognize them.
Brief update...I submitted two support tickets (b/c I was concerned the first didn't go through) and support has been quite sluggish to respond (and indeed, only responded to the 2nd ticket). Finger crossed that this gets resolved soon. Being patient for now.Lets us know what they say ... as this will affect all customers who have both I guess and are on the brink of upgrading .... real shame
Fingers crossed .. i bought a second hand set of PG for my son for Xmas as I couldnt afford the extra 3 new modules he wants since the price hike .. now £300 with 15% Dis although posting free (plus an uncotrollable import charge) The traveller kit 2 years ago cost me an extra $90 in import duties which i didnt expect plus a handling charge from DHL (I think that was £15) ... thought it would be around $30 all in ... real shock . Guess Id better check the software and see if they do get recognised otherwise these will be useless (cant return as bought from eBay)Brief update...I submitted two support tickets (b/c I was concerned the first didn't go through) and support has been quite sluggish to respond (and indeed, only responded to the 2nd ticket).

Also, I wasn't clear before and should have been: when I first got the new Monogram console (2 years ago), it worked perfectly mixed in with my Pallette Gear (again, on my M1 MacBook Pro). I'm confident this will work fine once I get things sorted.
Got everything up and running! Woo hoo! Turns out I had a faulty chord, though I know for sure the USB chord I was using before I updated worked fine (even running through a hub). So, what I've learned is that USB-C chords can be quite finicky.Fingers crossed .. i bought a second hand set of PG for my son for Xmas as I couldnt afford the extra 3 new modules he wants since the price hike .. now £300 with 15% Dis although posting free (plus an uncotrollable import charge) The traveller kit 2 years ago cost me an extra $90 in import duties which i didnt expect plus a handling charge from DHL (I think that was £15) ... thought it would be around $30 all in ... real shock .
