Tip


The remotes have the option

Sync Channel Layouts

active as default (in Preferences). This

option transfers the Layout Presets and the current Channel Layout state from host to remote.
Apart from the channel width state this option makes a mirror-style setup most easy. But when
using the remote as individual setup, make sure to disable this option to have independent Lay-
out Presets on the remote.

Limitations


• Mixer View & GUI. When connected the remote computer / iPad will immediately have the
complete routing and FX settings of the host, including mono and stereo channels, but not the
host's GUI setup, like panel states open/closed of Settings/EQ/Dynamic, FX panel visibility, 2-
Row or 3-Row mode and channel width. Channel width states can be stored as usual per Snap-
shot and completely as Workspace, locally on the remote computer. They need to be loaded
manually after loading a Workspace on the host in case a 100% identical view is required.

• Workspaces. The Remote shows the Quick Workspaces (hotkey W on Windows/Mac) stored
on the host, and allows to remotely load them. It is not possible to save complete Workspaces
with mixer state from the Remote, or on the Remote. The Workspaces saved locally include GUI
information only (Channel state wide/narrow, Channel Layouts, window size and position) and
further local settings, to be able to have personalized views on the remote computer, independ-
ent from the view on the host.

• Real-time behaviour. Can suffer when the network is overloaded or the WiFi reception is insuf-
ficient. Level Meters will stutter then and faders do not move smoothly.

• Background operation on iPad - is not possible. This should not be a problem as the Remote
doesn't need to do anything in background, and when called up very quickly reconnects and
synchronizes its state.

• State. Is shown in the upper right corner (offline or connected), or the Mac/Windows title bar.
