Master Fader V3.0.1 is Here !

<< < (14/35) > >>

Wynnd:
I hope this is addressed too, but it should wait until at least MyFader 3.x is out and running.  While it might be interesting to know how many programmers Mackie is using, I know enough about programming to know that things don't go as smoothly as desired.  (Ben O was hoping to have My Fader out before 2015.  That obviously didn't happen.)  It helps to limit the number of issues being addressed when attacking problems.  I don't see the Modern PEQ lag as the top priority until MyFader is released.  After it's release, it might jump to the top of the pile.  There is that issue when attempting to improve performance on a specific section of a program that you might cause other problems.  Gonna be some very soft stepping there.  Be patient and let Mackie get it right.  Hopefully by 2016 this problem will be forgotten.

Now I realize the new program may require more processing power but many have this same issue with newer iPads too.  I for one, have 3 iPads that experience this problem. The newest is a iPad mini2 that i have tried undocked. 
While I can deal with it thanks to vintage eq., I am more upset that Mackie has yet to acknowledge the issue and let us out here know there is a effort being made to find a resolution. I find it becoming harder to continue singing the praises of the system when the mfg. is ignoring an obvious problem.
Of course we all still await my fader 3 so we can have our iPods and iPhones back on line.

Thank you Rdmitch for opening my eyes. If this is going on across all iPad models new or old, albeit a small or bigger number, this is a Mackie issue. I know that there are some here that it’s a non-issue for and that’s great. I’m fairly certain there are others out there not on the forum that are having the same problems.

Hi Wynnd,

I just read your post after I posted mine on this topic and had to revise. You make a lot of sense and I do agree with you. The hardware platform is quite good and if we are all patient, hopefully Mackie will get it right, sooner rather than later, though. The lag is not a deal breaker, but rather a frustration that for some, including myself is not a good thing. I'm lucky that I can still stay on v2.x. I think that if I had just bought a new DL, I wouldn't have even realized there was a problem. And of course never read anything about any issues on the forum.  ;)

Rdmitch:
I'm curious if anyone is using a iPad air 2 and not having any issues.
Each iPad version uses a different processor and the iPad minis use either the A5 or A7 chip
But the new iPad air 2 uses the A8 which is claimed to be faster.

Just curious

Wynnd:
The GEQ lag has seemed to be ipad model independent.  I've seen more complaints about the more recent models.  I have an ipad 2 and an ipad mini.  (earlier model.)  And while I can see the lag, it's not bugging me.  (might just be my personal approach to this board and PAs in general.)   I believe in having a system that is quite flat and I don't do much channel GEQ adjusting.  And when I do make changes, it's always before the performance begins.  While I'm sure it's not perfect, it's very functional and I can live with functional.

RoadRanger:
The "lag" might be mostly on the Retina models (post "2" and "original mini") as those take a lot more computations to do the graphics?
