The MixRemote app for iPad allows full remote control of the M series of digital audio mixers, through their internal WiFi Access Point. The M series digital mixers are compact, self-contained, feature-packed faderless units which are ideal in all cases where live music is being performed. Several internal digital effects, both in send and in insert, are available for maximum flexibility. Several iPads can connect to the internal WiFi Access Point and manage all the available parameters. No audio is transferred between the iPad and the digital mixer, and all features of the digital mixers are accessible with this app, without requiring an additional computer for specific settings.
