Almost Perfect

EDIT: Issue fixed within a week of review. Fantastic, thank you!!!

Love using this app for X32 controls via my iPad. However, when using windowed apps on iPad, when in individual selection for a mix channel, the traffic menu buttons for the iPad are placed right on top of the Back button. PLEASE move the Back button down a bit on iPad channel selections so it can be hit! Would be 5 stars if that can be fixed. Thank you!

Response from developer

Hi. I’m glad you like the app. A fix for that is in the pipeline.

Okish

It’s OK but not as clean as some others I have used. You can’t put sends in individual groups. Also, there is no adjustment for left and right. I even upgraded to the pro to see if that would fix it, but it did not. Looks old

I bit archaic, but stable and functional

This isn’t a sophisticated app. The look is pretty archaic and it doesn’t have any advanced functionality. But it’s always been stable for me on stage and is simple to navigate. It does what I need it to do; adjust IEM mix on before and during a performance.

All channels all the time

Editing channels does nothing on iOS 26 - App does not save changes.
