Avid Control App for IPad / Eucon / DP

Post by JSmith1234567 »

I just tried this again, and it is pretty cool.

The first time I tried it awhile back it seemed buggy, but I downloaded the new versions of there app and Econ and it seems allot better.

Does anyone know a good starting place (PDF or just some tips) for setting up and customizing this app?

Avid has a few PDFs about the Control app and also Eucon, but the ones I could find either seem to be centered on ProTools or the hardware Artist series, but not so much on the IPad app.

Any tips or guides I might have missed?

Thanks!

I tired it too, and it works well with DP. The option to only display certain track types doesn't seem to work though. The only option that works with DP is to display ALL TRACKS. For me, that's way too many MIDI, aux, audio, and template tracks to make useful. Let me know if you find a way to get that working.

It's working that way for me too.

I thought about just putting the tracks I want to use it with at the tope of DP's Tracks window, but that's not a perfect solution?

I am using DP's new "just-show-tracks-in-use" feature incredibly helpful, and it would be great to have it here.

Why MOTU doesn't revive/update their DP Control app I can't figure out?
