"I prefer the full sized HOG 4 mainly because of the physical screen buttons, large tiltable screens - and very importantly of course the comfy armrest! Two particularly useful features in the realm of touring are the HOG’s fixture replicate and change-type. With careful attention to which existing fixtures in a show one applies these functions to, it is possible to cope quite painlessly with a complete change of rig for festivals or one-offs. I use timecode a lot, which I find extremely easy on this desk. Combining this with the triggering of other cues or cuelists via Comment Macros makes for an extremely powerful combination."
