I'm used to pulling the master L&R down 10 db during breaks so don't have to "trim" as much ;) .

I almost never touch my masters on any mixer. Especially on iPad controlled ones, where it's nearly impossible to zero the fader, short of typing in 0.

If they did, those same MP3s would be way too quiet to play anywhere else. You need about a 10dB drop to get decent fader travel on the iPad channel.

I have experienced a few acts who roll up with dodgy and all over the place backing tracks and so on, downloaded from you tube, borrowed from another medium,but personally I have never had a problem with a mixer and or pa not being able to boost a decent track however low it's been mastered to a sufficient level, especially for interval, I don't really see a problem with having a couple of hours of interval music and backing tracks duplicated and labeled differently for situations where different mixers would be accommodating my iPad, I guess if you were a DJ, this would be a big deal given the mean storage on a pad or phone compared to a laptop of the same price, but for a few backing tracks and an interval cd, it's no problem surely?
Cheers

Hi rr, I use MP3 gain.exe to normalize all my tracks and interval, but I always use either 2 instances of the playback app on a PC, or specific features of the iOS app to keep a differential between the two,

So you just want to do extra work? I don't. And now that we have trims, there's no reason. If you still want to, though, by all means, go ahead.
