Mixing Station

After the official app for the x-33 failed to connect, I tried this app and it works flawlessly. After entering the ip address of the mixer, it connects immediately and all the features of the x-33 are available remotely. We like the layout better than the official app because the controls are bigger and easier to manage especially if you have larger fingers. The layout of the controls are very intuitive and after flipping through all the buttons and tabs it is quickly clear that all the features are there and easily controlled. All the level meters work giving essential feedback for proper mixing. It even has its own added features. The cost is very reasonable for the full-featured app that it is. The only negative is its power consumption using around 35% in two hours on an iPad — not a big issue when this is the only app that works, and if the official app did work, we would still choose this one. Thank you developers for all your hard work in bringing this well-developed and thought-through app to us.

I’ve been waiting YEARS for this app to come to Apple iPhone. I run sound in a bar venue and use this app daily. This app has an immense amount of work put into it. The developers did an AMAZING job creating this app. Absolutely everything is customizable, from adding a tap tempo button to re-sizing the channel faders, layer buttons and whatever else you can imagine. Create your own custom layers to suit YOUR workflow. This app works extremely well. Never had a hiccup of any kind. Having full control of an X/M32, or whichever console you use, on an IPHONE is fantastic. Add in the fact that there are so many customizable options and you can’t even debate that there’s any better options out there. This app blows the manufacturer’s app out of the water in every way. I greatly enjoy the simplified user interface and lack of fancy graphic design. All that crap just bloats the app and reduces performance. I never leave reviews for apps, but I went completely out of my way to give credit where credit is due. This is WELL WORTH buying.

You can tell that Dave is passionate about his products. He’s always looking for ways to improve it and listens to the community. My business partner used this app for the first time and has over 35 years doing sound for major performers. He loved that layout and maneuverability compared to the manufacturers app. Anyone who has done live sound for a while knows that when you need to make a change, you need to get there quick. We use the Midas M32 for bigger shows and the Behringer XR18 for smaller shows and Karaoke. I like the idea of using one app and picking your model at startup. Keep up the great work Dave!!

This app is pretty cool.....allowing custom layouts when working with Soundcraft Si consoles is a big plus, but you still can’t assign the tap delay function to a button. That is the one feature that would keep me from having to go back and forth to the console. Is there a reason that this cannot be implemented? Maybe something in the Soundcraft design? I would pay three times the money for this app if that feature could be added.....I’m a bit bummed out The developer contacted me and explained that the lack of tap tempo is due to a limitation to the console....upgraded to 5 stars!

I used this app for the first time the other night to mix a show where I needed to put my m32r on the side of the stage and run everything remotely. I have used the native m32 app plenty of times. My biggest complaint with that app is no dedicated main LR fader always displayed. This app solved that and then some. Having the ability to have a custom layout is amazing. Being able to have a dedicated main fader, custom buttons for like effects mutes, tap delays, bus mutes and still have 8 channels across a iPad mini is amazing. Hopefully we see a update that will take advantage of the new v4 software on the m32.
