In general, I am happy with the app and mixer, with some small caveats. I rate this at 3.5, but gave it a 4* rating to balance against the 1* rating. 1 - The app interface isn’t super intuitive beyond the basic faders, so it would be AWESOME if there were built-in tutorials. Much of the online content is user-made and doesn’t mirror the app layout on an I-Pad, so I’ve had to do a bunch of trial and error to get things dialed in. 2 - I use the MR18 primarily to run audio for board meetings, keynote events, and occasional live musical events. There have been 3 instances where, due to Wifi interference, the app becomes unresponsive (audio doesn’t drop - everything just stays where it was prior to the signal drop). That is SUPER-disappointing and stress inducing in the middle of a live event. It has inspired me to instead start running the app from my computer connected to the MR18 via ethernet. Why not enable the MR18 to connect directly to an iPad via usb/thunderbolt for both data exchange and charging? 3 - it would be extremely beneficial to be able to copy and paste settings for different channels, instead of manually programming every channel. 4 - When using a touchscreen to adjust gain and other dial -based (non-slider) functions, it is not possible to see the numeric value behind my finger - it would be helpful to modify the interface to show a pop-up window or something so that we can easily see and/or manually input the numerical values. 5 - The color-pallet for labeling channels is rather limited - why isn’t there a color-wheel or other option to more diversely label channels? 6 - Every once in a while when opening the app, the screen stays black, or simply won’t display the option to select my MR18 - necessitating a restart of my iPad. I actually came to the App Store just now to see if there were any available updates (there were not). 7 - Once, the usb send/receive failed mid-meeting. It took a bit of troubleshooting to find that the issue was with the MR18 rather than with the app, which worked after doing a power-cycle. A notification of what failed within the system would be super helpful (like the way printers notify you of a specific jam or empty tray. All in all, this is a decent system. With the advances in AI and audio tech, I reckon newer mixers will have built-in AI, so this will probably be obsolete by 2028. ### 2/5 — Actualizacion *2025-12-15, version 1.6.7* Se require urgentemente que se actualice el app ya que no trabaja con las nuevas versiones de IOS. ### 2/5 — Not working after iPad os 26 update *2025-10-19, version 1.6.7* This app keeps crashing when you try to open it after updating iPad OS to 26… but when you open it without Wi-Fi it works perfectly. Please add a web portal in the mixer to allow us to control it on our iPads without the hassle of crashing iPad apps ### 3/5 — App Stuck *2025-09-24, version 1.6.7* App is stucking when start in iPadOS 26. App need update. ### 1/5 — Crash continui *2025-09-24, version 1.6.7* L’app va in crash ogni volta che la collego al mixer, sia con router esterno che con quello integrato ### 1/5 — Ios18.5 *2025-08-30, version 1.6.7* ทำไมไม่มีการพัฒนาแอพเลย ควรจะพัฒนาให้ทันสมัยหน่อยนะ เข้าแล้วเด้ง ต้องใช้ iOS เก่าถึงไม่เด้ง ### 3/5 — iPad gen11 iOS 18.5 *2025-08-25, version 1.6.7* เชื่อมWiFi เข้าแอพแล้วเด้ง เป็นเพราะอะไร อัพFW แล้วก็เด้งเหมือนเดิมเลย แก้ให้หน่อยครับผม ### 1/5 — NOT OPENING ON IPAD *2025-08-23, version 1.6.7* It keeps crashing on ipad m4 ### 1/5 — Не работает, iPad Air 5 m1, iOS 18.6 *2025-08-03, version 1.6.7* Закрывается приложение само по себе, не подключается к пульту ### 1/5 — App crashes immediately *2025-07-31, version 1.6.7* This is the second time that an update is not compatible with this app. There is zero support or customer service from Midas to keep these issues from happening. Unbelievable. The price tag on the hardware should guarantee that this app ALWAYS works with every new apple update. MIDAS has taken a nosedive ever since behringer bought them out. ### 1/5 — แก้ไข *2025-07-16, version 1.6.7* ไอแพด เจน11 ios18.5 เข้าแล้วเด้ง ### 3/5 — แอปเด้ง iOS 18.5 *2025-07-10, version 1.6.7* แก้ไขด้วยครับ iOS18.5 เข้าแล้วเด้งออกเลย ### 1/5 — Not working to ipad a16 2025 model… if im connected to the wifi mr18 the apps is auto close… *2025-07-07, version 1.6.7* 1 ### 1/5 — Crashes on iOS *2025-07-02, version 1.6.7* I have spent hours now trying everything I can to get this application to work on these brand new iPads our church just purchased for our brand new sound system using the MR18 mixer. The whole point of this entire project was to have access to adjust our mixer with iPads but nothing we try will get them to function. Cannot contact support as their website does not load and nothing online I can find gives me any sort of help to solve this. What a colossal waste of time money and energy this has been for us. Please fix this asap!!!1!1!!1!1!1!1!1!1!1!1!!!!! ### 4/5 — iOS 18 *2025-06-14, version 1.6.7* Bonjour J’ai la version IOS 18 quelle solution pouvez-vous proposer afin de pouvoir utiliser la MAir 18 ? ### 1/5 — Update *2025-06-05, version 1.6.7* Update your software please can’t use the app ### 1/5 — Не открывается! *2025-05-23, version 1.6.7* Приложение установилось, но не открывается, сразу вылетает!

It does the job very efficiently; however take the time and do the updates( and wish there were more) V:2 is a must have Happy mixing ### 5/5 — App works fine, you’re all just doing it wrong. *2024-07-14, version 1.6.7* Look, the app is fine. It’s your mixers built in WiFi. Replace that with an AP and you’re good. ### 5/5 — Läuft wieder unter iOS 16!! *2023-10-22, version 1.6.7* Vielen Dank behringer ### 5/5 — 업데이트 시급 *2023-08-09, version 1.6.6* 볼륨노브가 가끔씩 움직이지 않습니다 ### 5/5 — Air5 *2023-08-03, version 1.6.6* ไม่เด้งแล้วครับ ### 5/5 — Bug selesai *2023-07-18, version 1.6.6* Terbaik ### 5/5 — FINALLY Update: iOS 16 support ! Please fix this!!! *2023-07-11, version 1.6.6* Finally after over a year the update for compatibility with ios16 is out. I will still use mixing station in some instances, but the m-air app has a better overview of ALL channels at once so I’m really glad to see it working again. I appreciate development for finally doing it. This had crippled many places that I’d installed these products Original review: I have installed mr-18s in dozens of churches and venues where I live. My company has stepped up in your absence and is now providing them with laptops out of pocket to control there mixers because there iPads no longer work! Unacceptable for a product with such a wide user base ! ### 5/5 — Impressed, totally! *2023-07-08, version 1.6.6* I’ve used this since 2015. I couldn’t be happier. There have been a few glitches, but it got better. Overall it has been solid. Better than I ever expected. I’ve used everything out there, and this will always be my first choice.
