Ratings and Reviews
Needs to be worked on
Interface is missing a lot of things to make operation quick and smooth. It is also sluggish, even on an iPad Pro, so not very sophisticated programming. Higher numbers in patch are truncated. Missing vertical faders. Missing a fader subgroup page in the first place.
When you re-enter the app is always freezes for 10 seconds.
Perhaps usefull when setting up conventional lights in theatres when there is no rush… cannot think of other use at the moment.
