Simulator
This app needs a simulator or demo like the x32 app. We are looking to migrate from the x32 to the wing at my church, and as Tech Director this is how I was able to train our volunteers as well as the worship team. There is little to no information on the wing currently so a demo on the app would enable the tech team to get use to the in’s and outs of the board before install. Please get a demo mode set up!!!! I will give 5 stars after this is done!

Hi Tech Director TOBCF, Thanks for your feedback! We hear you. Offline editing aka a demo mode will come rather soon. Cheers!
Live Sound Engineer's Opinion
Current Status of the FoH mixing section is highly lacking compared to this companies own previous attempt.
In my opinion the X32-Mix app was near perfect and out of all of the iPad Sound Desk control apps this was the pinical of speed and reliability.
The WING-CoPilot app is lacking in it's ability to support a fast festival work flow for a FoH engineer.
The StageTech support functions for naming and sources etc are a great benefit and well thoughtout.
Opinion:
From the "Home" page on the X32-Mix, you can see metering (and fader levels) for all channels buses and masters across the desk.
Very handy to quickly identify something peaking out of control and where it's coming from.
WING gives you none of this overview without going to the meters.
X32-Mix to get to any channel's compressor settings in "full" screen, takes 3 taps maximum. 1 to select bank, 1 to select channel, 1 to select compressor tab.
The WING-CoPilot takes Bank, Channel, Compressor, Full Screen.
I don't understand why it's a small pop-out at the side and not a full-screen interface immediately.
Personal Opinion on making WING-CoPilot better:
1. change to the X32-Mix layout
2. Increase channel count per page from 8 to 12, same as the WINGs L surface.

Hi sound guy juan, in the latest update we added an offline mode to Copilot. Enjoy!
Great Controller
We use this app at church regularly. It controls FOH and monitor mixes. It would be nice if a separate monitor mix control panel was available. It's a great app however.
general app review
the app needs to be more user friendly. you need to make a lot of steps to get something simple done. need to fix compressor and gate deactivation when accessing to make a change. need to add naming on input and outputs accesible at channel strip.
Metering
No active Input metering on my copilot app?
How do I set it up, so I see active levels on my ipad?

Connection problems
The app has suddenly been having difficulties. It connects to the console but gets stuck on the “getting data” screen. Have tried restarting everything and checking IP addresses, I think the issue is to do with the app itself.
Blank screen
Only get a blank screen
Response from developer
Hi danmichigan, Thanks for getting in touch. We identified the cause for the black screen on older iOS versions and will update WING Copilot right away. Apologies for the inconvenience.
Black screen
The update 1.6 boots to a black screen (no video) after splash screen.

Hi theInuxguy, That doesn’t sound like a good experience. We identified the root cause for the black screen on older iOS versions and we’ll update WING Copilot right away. Have a great day!
A few bugs but
Thanks you for your innovation. This app is great - I’m sure it’ll get better. Looking forward to updates and improvements.
