Does the pro show more than 8 channels at a time? Or does it just show 8 channels, bigger?

I'm hoping for some changes to take advantage of the extra real estate on the ipad Pro.  I'd like two rows with more channels covered.  It would also be useful to be able to choose which two screens are on screen at the same time.

Now you're talkin!

That would make me buy an iPad Pro

My bet is this might be available on Master Fader 4.x when released.  Might also work on the later ipad air 2s where split screens are an ios option.  There are some issues that might prevent it from giving us the advantages of the extra real estate.  Hope not.

I Just used an iPad pro for mixing a show last night.  The extra space is very helpful to me!

How about the weight? Is that an issue?

I originally started out digital mixing with the first version of the iPad, which weighed the same as the pro.  It does get to be a bit heavy after a while, but nothing terrible.  I have an air 2 that I use when setting up, as the pro is awkward to use when you are chasing issues :)

It's a new iToy with bigger screen real estate. Who couldn't resist? But at $999 Canadian, it goes on my bucket list. Rats!  :mrgreen:

Hasn't anyone in the fruit world written a useful iOS simulator that runs on a real computer?
