Perfect for my needs

Granted, I'm not using it very deeply, but it's awesome for what I'm doing. This includes some basic mixing: faders, transport controls, etc all work perfectly. Love it.

Brilliant App!!

Having read the review by Mickey, I decided to take a punt anyway, and Boy!!, am I glad I did.
I'm running iOS 8.3, and logic pro 9 with osx lion on a Mac mini, and it works fine.
I have a physical control surface ( m audio project mix ) connected, and was slightly worried that the app might conflict with this but after a reboot it worked, no problems.
I mainly wanted the app as just a remote transport for when I'm recording, but it's great to know it works as a full virtual logic control should I ever have a problem with the project mix.
If you're looking at this app, then go ahead and buy it, you won't regret it!!
Thank you Vitaly!!

P.S., Since writing the above, I've tried it on my PC win XP / logic v5.5 and it works. Very very impressed!!!

Works Great!!!!!!

Was going to buy a remote MIDI controller , downloaded this app out of curiosity. Followed the clear set up instructions and WOW IT WORKS GREAT with logic!!! Exactly what I wanted.

No no no no no

Will not work for PC. I run windows 7 and I use all kinds of DAW's. I got this specifically for ableton and it worked 2 times in the 48 hours that I've used it. I want a refund!! There isn't even a support page or help or anything. I emailed the company and still no reply. C'mon guys, if you're gonna make a product at least make sure it freaking works.

Dont' bother

Never got it working with Sonar. No support. Tried for days to get it to work. Why publish an app and not support the damn thing?????? Finally I downloaded AC-7 Core and it was up and running in 5 minutes. Was very happy to say goodbye to the wasted hours I had spent on DAW control.

Be careful - this won't work with iOS 8.1 onwards and OS-X!

Sorry guys, it looks like a great bit of software (and one I could really have done with) but having sat with this for two hours yesterday evening trying everything and having got nowhere with it, my internet searches for help all pointing to the WiFi-MIDI link from iOS to OS-X having been broken in the release of iOS 8.1.1. I'm running Pro Tools 8.0.5 LE on a Mac Mini running OS-X x10.8.5 Snow Leopard. Such a pity, and of course this will be true for all WiFi DAW MIDI controllers using the same system. Let's hope this bug in iOS is fixed in future releases, but for now it's simply four quid down the drain. Just as an addendum to that, I upgraded my iPad 4 to the latest version of iOS (8.4) today and it still doesn't work. Tried every combination and every permutation, and still nothing. Very disappointing indeed. Probably best to look for a hardware USB controller, at least there'd be no lag or flaky WiFi to mess things up.

Almost Perfect! Great Job

I'm a professional engineer and hate not having something to control my session other than a mouse and keyboard. This is a great substitute that can easily be setup in ANY STUDIO. Saves so much time especially when track arming and going for that double take. Takes a bunch of mouse licks and moves with one hand and puts them on the iPad and gets you ready to do another take in a couple of seconds.
A must have for any engineer without a console on control surface.

Pretty Cool - Good Price

I have been quite happy with my purchase of this app. It connects well in my experience and has great options. I have not tried other Mackie emulators to compare but this one is solid for the price. My biggest complaint at this moment is the lack of options or settings for the device. I understand there isn’t much that really needs to change, but I am at least frustrated that I can not disable the clicking sound it makes when you press the button. I use an external interface with my iPad that serves other functions. This app is pretty much useless to use when i am working with my other audio apps because you hear a click with every press of a button. Its a minor thing in general, but people who use this also work in studios so it seems only like a practical idea to me to be able to disable sounds in the app. Overall though it is decent for the price you pay.

Works with my old G5 tower!

I run Logic Express 8 on an old G5 so I was not expecting a miracle. I got one anyway. This $5 app instantly upgraded my studio.

Encore mieux que que le fader board de PreSonus pour Studio 1.

Γ‡a fonctionne merveilleusement bien.
