What's the current best iPad solution for SAC? Is it AC-7 or did something else work better?

Because I know Brett and others did a lot of work in this area and not everyone checks over there.

The answer was good for a laugh at least. It was like Bob was taking lessons from politicians. Don't answer the question asked just answer the one you want someone to ask. :-)

Brett is off someplace with no internet for a while. and he doesn't really pay much attention to either forum really. But hopefully he will chime in at some point.

An Allen&Heath Qu16. That's the best solution.

I use Midi Studio Pro based on Bretts ideas and find it useable - one big plus for me is that I can also control my lighting rig on the same page as SAC. One caution with MSP is that you will lose your carefully crafted custom setup when the designer decides to update the app, so write everything down. Updates are sporadic but more regular than Bob L's

Thanks Richard, I actually leave Saturday (to a cabin in the Smoky Mountains shown below from a previous trip). :mrgreen:


I was using "Midi Studio Pro" on my iPad. The app by itself gives you access to vol, mute, solo, pan, eq and dynamics. Not the greatest control for eq and dynamics though. It also required "RTPmidi" for translation.
If you are linked to the Host, it also gives you meters. The meters do not work if you are linked to a remote. I was also using a custom "Autohotkey" script to access other things.

Nice cabin - I need some time at a place like that. I'm looking into the app, thanks! All I'm really looking for is 17 faders, no EQ or dynamics needed. It'll be run off a remote, so no meters, but no big deal - it's for a monitor remote only. I've used RTP with AC-7, so no big deal there. Do channel labels happen to show up as well?

Joe - I figured you were. At 7a, I didn't have much time... And yes, I love the non-answer over on the other forum... And the May 'hopeful' release date...
