Works well

Just got a new FM9 MKII and don’t want to lug a laptop around—this works in a similar way to FM9-Edit, but I can use my iPad Pro. Worth it!

Indispensable

Application vite devenue indispensable pour piloter mon AX8 depuis mon iPad.
Je mets bien sûr 5 étoiles.
Il ne manque que, quand on est dans un preset, pouvoir affecter des effets et/ou scènes aux footswitches !

Crashes every 15 seconds and when selecting many options

It's a fantastic concept and I wanted to really like it. The app crashes constantly when using the functions that do work and many don't even work. The app is just unusable on my FM3. I just got a FM9 and it's much more stable and usable IRL.

Unfortunately, no voice over support

I realize that for the programmers, it takes extra effort to make the app voiceover accessible, but, it simply means that this app isn’t accessible to me or other people with vision problems.
Thanks.

Usb trouble from iphone13

Software works as advertised. Or did work. Same phone, usb cable, and Axe-fx3. My iPhone now shows no connection to axe-fx. Frac Pad 3 shows no connection. Before I tried using Frac-pad the last time, I was able to play Apple Music from my iphone13 through the USB to the Axe3. That no longer works. Frac Pad shows the connection screen/no connection/and the spinning yellow circle.

Two other iPhones in the house can still plug into the usb cable and play music. Has Frac Pad affected a USB setting somehow? Again, this only happened after opening Frac Pad recently with my phone connected to the Axe3.

Thank you
