User reviews

Basically works

So far the basic functionality seems to be working well. Wish there was other options for timecode syncing. Including tentacle sync timecode over Bluetooth would also be really helpful instead of having to physically connect each with a cable. Especially for a record only situation, also level indication or waveform rendering in the app would be really helpful.

Erratic Bluetooth performance. Unusable for pros.

Talked with tech support. No relief. Randomly loses BT connections with any or all A20-mini and A20-TX transmitters. No rhyme or reason to it. Turning off every other BT device, disabling Nexlink to no avail. EVERY other Bluetooth app including SD-Remote, Wingman, Sidus Audio etc. works perfectly for me except this one. Sound Devices is one fantastic company but this app has big BT problems.

Works great!

I really love being able to control my 833 from my iPad!
