Thanks to all who replied. I was a bit disappointed first when there was no one replying after several days and did not check back earlier. Currently I am not sure wheather To go with an R model or the regular one. From your responses I can see that the display is hardly used for interaction and most of you opt for using emote to control it. For me the only issue is the need to have a laptop connected all the time which is a cost to add to the R. I was actually hoping they would release an IOS app so I could make use of my iPad. For being on stage I think I prefer a standalone setup that I could at least administrate via the display w/o the need to plug a laptop.
One question left though: Did anyone experience issues from the fact that there is no pre-amp stage in the H9000?
