## What is TotalMix FX for iPad?

TotalMix FX for iPad is RME’s Windows/Mac software TotalMix FX ported to iOS. It gives control over the audio interface’s mixer and effects unit, when the interface is in Class Compliant mode and connected to the iPad.

*** This app does not work wirelessly. For remote control of TotalMix FX running on a Windows or Mac computer, please use RME's free app TotalMix Remote. ***

*** ATTENTION: This app works only with the RME audio interfaces Fireface UFX+, UFX II, UFX, UCX, 802, Babyface, Babyface Pro and MADIface Pro, and only when these devices are in Class Compliant mode! ***

TotalMix FX for iPad runs on iPad2 or newer, and all iOS versions from 12.0 up, using only few resources. As under Windows and Mac OS X it does not process audio, but acts as remote control for the calculations performed in the hardware. The app is fully compatible even when storing/loading Workspaces. Except for MIDI/OSC and TCP/IP remote control all features of the desktop version are included.

Using the Fireface UCX and Fireface 802 with the iPad, TotalMix FX for iPad unlocks the device’s whole functionality, with full overview and lightning fast configuration.
 
For the Fireface UFX, UFX II and UFX+ the whole functionality is offered as well. Even DURec (Direct USB Recording) is fully usable and controllable from the iPad.

The functionality of the Babyface, Babyface Pro and MADIface Pro is slightly limited due to technical reasons. The effects Reverb and Echo are not available. All other features are present and useable with iPad operation. The MADIface Pro supports 24 channels playback/record, 4 analog and 20 from MADI.

TotalMix for iPad benefits from the background audio function in iOS. During ongoing recording and playback switch to TotalMix at any time, perform the desired settings or changes, then return to the audio app where record/playback had not been interrupted.

The app includes an extensive and up-to-date help. More information on TotalMix FX and the Class Compliant operation of the devices is found in the current interface manuals. These are available for download at http://www.rme-audio.de, section Downloads.

### 2/5 — Must Have!

*2026-07-20, version 1.96*

I’m a huge fan of RME interfaces and currently own three.  The RME UCX2 is my go-to for managing my studio setup and the accompanying iPad app is essential. Please update to 2.0!

### 5/5 — An essential tool

*2025-10-31, version 1.96*

This app works great. I use it all the time. The last time the app was updated was about a year ago. Part of me thinks wow they should get another update out. But then I think “it works. Why would they update it if it’s working?”

If you have an rme interface that works with his app on an iPad, it is a fantastic option for making quality recordings on the go.

### 1/5 — I thought I could hook my babyface pro

*2024-01-28, version 1.93*

Straight to my ipad pro with this. I want my money back please.

### 5/5 — TotalMix

*2024-01-19, version 1.93*

This app is great in controlling RME interfaces in CC Mode. You can copy your settings from your PC to your IPad and have it configured the same way.

### 5/5 — Très pratique ! Merci Rme.

*2023-07-05, version 1.80*

Fonctionne parfaitement avec Rme Ucx II, Windows 11.

### 4/5 — Great but issue

*2023-03-19, version 1.781*

Works well but does not remember interface settings, ie clock source, so have to manually change every time.

### 5/5 — Funciona perfectamente

*2023-03-12, version 1.781*

Va sin problema ninguno, solo pediría que también funcionara en iphone.

### 5/5 — CCモードはこっちかーい！

*2022-03-31, version 1.73*

やっと辿り着きました。UCX IIを使用しています。6th iPad miniでネットワークでのコントロールにTotalMix Remoteアプリを使用しています。CCモードでのコントロールの場面で何をどうしても繋がらず、撃沈していたところ、こちらのアプリとの違いを調べ、もしやと思いポチりました。即解決です！メーカーページに区別の詳細を記載すべきレベル(汗)困惑された方の救いになりますようにレビューさせて頂きます。アプリはそのものは安定の優秀です！

### 5/5 — Weltklasse

*2021-12-28, version 1.73*

USB-C Dockingstation an das Ipad Pro angeschlossen, USB-C Charger an das Dock angeschlossen, Babyface oder FF802 angeschlossen und alles funktioniert auf Anhieb wie gewohnt.
Besser gehts nicht!

### 4/5 — totally the same control experience as the Mac Version.

*2021-10-28, version 1.73*

totally the same control experience as the Mac Version.
But one thing is that I cannot find out how to load external snapshot and workspace files that I saved by using my Mac version total mix. So dose it support this function or need to be updated? thank you!
