Hi
Heres my report
I have used mf3 now 10 times on a live gig
So far only the first 2 times i had the lag mayby 1 to 1,5 sec( using ipad2)almost to unusable, later it still a bit there, but workable again. Mayby like a quarter of a sec.
What i noticed is also if connected to the mixer the lag seems to grow. So to me it looks more that it occurs due the communicating protocols and not due to graphics on ipad
Tryed also other programs like x32, they behave all the same when offline, and also sometimes slow
Must tell i restart the ipad every time before use
I'm very happy with it
Pro for using mf3 :
The groups and vca
Direct acces to setting,gate compressor and eq
The small vu for compressor and gate level
The digital trim, and yes the compressor gain it did use before, but it wasnt useble for the hot ipad channel and the dig trim is
Way of use groups : drums to sub1, bas to sub2 , git and keys sub 3 , vocals sub 4
Most of the groups got compressor (1,2,3 comp gain 0db, 4 Comp. gain 4db more then 1,2,3)
Vca1 all the inputs, vca all the group faders, this works great for pushing every thing in compression, (raising vca1) then lower vca2 to keep the same level
Vca3 is linked with the aux masters so if i got feedback i lower this one. Then search the problem
Con for using mf3:
The display window for muting reverb,delay and the tap button are almost un useble
This comes because of the slowness of opening and closing of this window, also when opend u cannot use any fader or main fader, mostly i use the tap button in the delay Channel.
Over view screen, looks nice for outsiders but again here almost onuseable, would be better if they made this all faders. Like 16 or 32 lr faders, and 4x 16 faders for aux ( also with somes kind of assign screen)
