## What is Mixtender 2?

Mixtender 2 for MIDAS Pro Series Consoles
Delivering an unprecedented range of control and mobility, the Mixtender 2 App has been completely re-imagined with input from the very engineers who know MIDAS mixers best. Combining control of most key functions with responsive system metering, engineers can take control of any PRO-series or XL8 console using an iPad. Support for multiple simultaneous iPads allows FOH and monitor engineers to work collaboratively from any location in the venue.
Mixtender 2’s new features include full-screen EQ editing which allows accurate tweaks of individual channel signals. With the new VCA and POP group unfolding and member editing function, managing these unique console functions becomes a simple and easy task. Plus, using the quick navigation page with comprehensive level metering, engineers can track all signals while away from the console.
Designed and developed by MIDAS, the Mixtender 2 App is compatible with PRO1, PRO2, PRO2C, PRO3, PRO6, PRO9, PROX and XL8 consoles. All that’s needed to unleash the power and versatility of remote mixing is a wireless network and the free download. Comprehensive on-the-go control is just a touch away.

### 1/5 — Can’t connect this app needs an update

*2022-08-21, version 2.3.0*

I need it to work in Midas pro 2 it never connects no customer support this is really wrong to pro users those consoles aren’t cheap to have this kinds of problems

### 2/5 — Can’t pan stereo aux mixes

*2021-09-05, version 2.3.0*

So this app is super handicapped for doing stereo in ear aux mixes.  Panning isn’t available

### 4/5 — please support iPad Pro

*2020-05-14, version 2.3.0*

When will you update this app?

### 2/5 — Barely useable

*2020-04-16, version 2.3.0*

The apps works... but it doesn't give you access to functions needed when mixing on an iPad. 
1. No tap function. Which is how I control my delays during the show. 
2. No access to effects. Huge bummer if I want to tweak something.
3. No mute groups. This is a huge mistake. We need access to our mute groups. 
4. Access to routing. Would be nice.

I could go on but I highly doubt Midas even cares enough to do anything about it.

### 4/5 — Love the app, almost great for monitors

*2020-03-25, version 2.3.0*

Really would love to see some kind of direct out control for use with monitors and esp personal mixers. Automation and patching would be amazing as well.

### 5/5 — iPad 4 -iOS 10

*2019-10-20, version 2.3.0*

iPad 4 -iOS 10

### 3/5 — please

*2019-05-01, version 2.3.0*

Please enable to change the scene setting value.

### 4/5 — Love the app but no panning for Stereo Mix!?!?

*2019-02-06, version 2.3.0*

This app is awesome! Thank you bringing a powerful but simplified application to use for mixing! It makes it great for when you want to go "walk" the room and get a good solid mix....But as people have mentioned, you can't pan your stereo aux mixes and you also can't edit any of the EFX from your pad. That frustrating when you're affecting the Reverbs and when keying in a monitor mix. PLEASE LET THOSE TWO THINGS BE ON THE NEXT UPDATE SO THIS CAN BECOME THE BEST FOH MIXING APP OUT THERE, THANK YOU!!!!

### 1/5 — EQ

*2018-11-25, version 2.3.0*

Remove the zeroing of EQ by holding two fingers, it's terribly

### 2/5 — Please Fix the Panning on linked sends!

*2018-06-02, version 2.3.0*

The app is useful for walking the room and making adjustments to the Front Of House Mix or mono Aux sends. Unfortunately it falls short in several areas.

Since the Gen iii updates the app no longer allows you to pan channels for linked Aux sends buses. The pan always changes the master mix panning regardless of which bus is selected. This makes it useless for mixing stereo IEMs from stage.

The app also excludes control for effects and scene automation selection and some of the more advanced features on the consoles. 

The apps for the X/M32 consoles provide more features.
