Title: Need to roll back to MF 4 on iPad
Post by: stevegarris on February 02, 2022, 07:00:57 PM

I did an update on my iPad the other day, and now it wants to install new firmware. I want to restore MasterFader 4 on this iPad. Is that possible? Current IOS is 15.3.

Think I found my answer. You cannot roll back an IOS, and the Ver5 MF only works on the newer IOS.

http://ipsw.me is how I’ve downgraded my iPad in the past but only the latest updates are signed and can be installed.

Google SHSH blobs to learn how to downgrade your iOS device in future.

I've got an iPad Pro and have BOTH MF 4.x and MF  5.2 on it.  I just use the one I need and there has never been an issue having MF 4.x on an iPad.  (Except the very first version of iPad.)  You don't have to roll back the iPad OS to run Master Fader 4.

Also, the M1 Macs will load the iPad versions of Master Fader from MF 3 through MF 5.2 (Both iPad and Mac versions.)
