Virtually perfect app

I’ve been using sidus link mobile for Aputure products for a year now, and it’s amazing! It makes makes lighting scenes more efficient and exciting! I’m excited to start using the new iPad version so I can just leave the iPad up and open on set as a dedicated lighting controller, as well as use the diagram master to demo and model the scenes with my team! I wouldn’t mind a single purchase of the upgraded features vs a subscription, but I can see how that would be useful! And I will be subscribing regardless! Besides a few fixtures that I’m sure are on the horizon (tubes), Aputure is quickly claiming space in my whole kit!

Robust and reliable through 5 union feature films

We’ve been Sidus Link users since 2020 when we bought our first Aputure lights, and have exclusively used Sidus Link as our lighting control app since then through 5 union feature films and several commercials in between. With every update Sidus has improved connection and connectivity, and the current version of the app is very robust and reliable. We use a Bridge that stays Velcro’d to our iPad and we use that unit as the master control unit. We never shut down the Sidus app while we’re on set. We also make sure every light has the latest firmware. If you do these three things, you will have a very reliable Sidus experience. The users who are having trouble with their Sidus Link are likely doing two things: Quitting and relaunching their app frequently, or walking away from their master control unit and losing connection to their master controller. If you utilize a Sidus Bridge, make it the master controller and keep it with your tablet or device, you will have a much better experience. Open the app, connect to your master controller, and don’t quit the app. It’s that simple.Smallfoot Lighting

Console Mode Workflow is Amazing

I already have a very smooth experience with Sidus Link for iOS. Sure, there are bugs here and there but the Sidus Link team is always very responsive when I have a question and are pretty quick to fix any bugs that come up.I really like the advanced Workflow tools you can have with Console Mode on the bigger screen. You can control all of your lights without ever leaving the mode because the additional screen real estate means you don’t have to switch to other screens. It’s made my workflow on set very fast, and I prefer using iPad Console Mode to the iPhone version.Now just waiting on Sidus Pro FX for iPad. Can’t wait!

Diagrams need work, the rest is great

Love the app except for a few quirks with the diagrams portion, lighting portion works great for me. Text notes on diagrams renders to PDF super weird, everything looks fine until you try to export then it can land text blocks on top of each other.Walls… the blocks for drawing walls are silly, just give me a decent line tool. Take notes from a floor plan app for thisEquipment descriptors. You really need to be able to move those around otherwise if you put stuff close together it gets all jumbled. I realize I can put stuff farther apart and tell someone it actually needs to be close but it’s better if the illustration can match closer to what I want.It would be nice to have a clearly defined edge of render, so you have a defined max space that will all be captured that you can see while working.
