V3 SOUND CONTROL
Read full descriptionHide full description
This app lets you control sounds, parameters, and settings on your V3 Sound expanders, including the new Pro Line Sound Expander and XXL models. Select sounds, change parameters such as volume, reverb and many other parameters, and save everything in a Registration. You can save 300 Registrations, overlay and split up to 6 sounds on one MIDI channel. Hardware requirement: The app only works in conjunction with the optional hardware "V3-SOUND-CONTROL", a Bluetooth receiver in the form of a USB stick. Connection: The app sends the parameters via Bluetooth from the tablet to the Bluetooth receiver, which is connected to the USB port of the V3 Sound Expander. The MIDI keyboard is connected to the V3 Sound Expander using a standard MIDI cable.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: V3 SOUND CONTROL at every 2 months against B's every 9 months. B's advantage is device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
