Hi guys,
I started using this app when it was still part of the Euphonix Artist control surface.
It worked great then, although the touch screen wasn't as responsive as the ipad.
So it was with great excitement that I started using it on that once it was ported.
Generally, it works well, and it is fast! Though both the eucon app on the computer side and the ipad control app are really starting to show their age.
I'm shocked that there's no easy copy/pasting of buttons to another button or other page - a quicker way to assign functionality without having to go through the menu for each button.
Or group selecting a bunch of buttons to at least assign the same category - let's say I wanted to assign a bunch of buttons to shortcut offline processing with plugins, I could at least assign the 'process plugin' to that group, and then go in and individually assign the plugins from that category.
But the ipad app is also in dire need of a visual overhaul - I can't believe that there are actually less customisation options than there were on the Euphonix hardware version - at least there you could set font types and colors, increase the size of the font instead of using this tiny fixed yellow font.
Also, considering the ipad is a high resolution DPI device, the icons look like they were lifted from an 8 bit game.
Here is a screenshot from another now sadly defunct ipad app that tried to do something similar, called Quadro.
It worked fairly well with basic apps, but was rather slow with Nuendo and other audio apps.
The Eucon protocol is clearly superior, so it really deserves a UI to match all that great functionality.
The buttons can be different sizes, and the page buttons have one corner smoothed off, so it's clear what links to another page and what is a regular button. Also note the smooth large fonts and clear and crisp icons:
I hope this is something the developers can take onboard...
