Neyrinck V-Control Pro 1.5 - iPad control of DAW's…and their windows!

I’ve written about V-Control before, it’s a virtual control surface for various DAW applications including Pro Tools, Logic and Cubase. Version 1.5 has added a great new feature called V-Window that allows you to directly control any window (plugin, floating panel, edit etc) directly on your iPad. 

If you have an iPad and are looking for a control surface then at $50 this is a steal. You get a transport control. direct access to mixing controls including a surround panner and now plugin control on a wifi connected device. The control response is instantaneous but be aware that screen redraws on the ipad particularly with V-Window lag behind as with any VNC like device.

Demo FX Session template

As requested by Marco on a previous post this is a fairly generic FX template session with 10 5.1 predubs and associated routing. Each predub contains 8 mono tracks and 4 stereo tracks feeding a 5.1 auxillary channel with (in the case of the PTX file) as ChannelStrip instantiated on it (in the PTF this is replaced by a Dyn3 Limiter). I have steered clear of non-built in plugins.

The session contains a routing test section at 00:58:00:00 which runs through the outputs across all predubs in about 30 seconds.

The tracks are labelled using no more than 4 characters which makes them compatible with EuCon displays. 

Any errors or questions please feel free to post in the comments or via email.

Merry Christmas from Avid - Digidelivery client for Lion

Arriving in time for the end of support by Aspera comes a Digidelivery client for Lion. It comes with a lot of disclaimers but from some limited testing seems to work very well and runs without the need for Rosetta. This client was released by Avid rather than the new owners Aspera which just goes to highlight how little they actually planned to ever put into this product but good job to Avid for doing this.

Thanks to Bob Russo for the heads up on this.
