RME TotalMix FX v1.20 now available for iPad
Are you using TotalMix FX on an iPad yet? If not, you should be!
Many of RME’s audio interfaces have the ability to run in Class Compliant mode, giving you the option of using your interface with an iPad and turning it into a multi-track recording device in its own right. With the TotalMix FX iOS app, you have control over your interface in the same way as when using a Mac or PC, making for a powerful portable recording or live mixing solution.
TotalMix FX makes use of the background audio functions found in iOS, so during recording and playback you can seamlessly switch between your recording app and TotalMix FX without a hitch. Also, by combining the standard TotalMix FX with a MIDI control surface app such as TouchOSC, you can control your interface wirelessly, opening up further possibilities for using your RME interface with an iPad – you could perform a sound-check from anywhere in a venue for example.
RME have just released version 1.20, which includes several new additional features – along with some enhancements to the performance of the app, you can now copy and paste your routing and channel strip settings from one channel to another, as well as duplicating any effects you’re sending. You’re also now able to swipe the control panel to the right-hand side for a more streamlined workflow, and the app’s built-in help file has also been improved, including more details about the latest features.
The TotalMix FX iOS app requires iOS 5.1.1 or later, and offers fully-functional compatibility when used with the RME Fireface UCX, Fireface 802 and Fireface UFX (including DURec), as well as support for the Babyface and the new Babyface Pro (although the Reverb and Echo effects are unavailable). Here at Synthax Audio UK, we recommend making the connection between the devices with an official Apple Camera Connection Kit to ensure reliability and performance.
