MXBus

First off, the app is a perfect solution for our vocalists using IEMs. The free version provides exactly what they need. No more, no less. The interface is so clean and tidy and really maximizes the screen’s real estate. That said, we have noticed a weird issue where one fader fades completely out on its own. Seems to happen when a vocalist leaves the app open and locks and unlocks their phone repeatedly to make adjustments during rehearsal. One fader, typically somewhere between fader 3 and 7 will just start sliding down on its own. Try and move it up and it’ll look glitchy and then fade back down. If they close and reopen the app, the problem goes away. Easy workaround but I thought I would mention it in case there is a fix for it.

I like this app better than the others because it is easier to use and gives you the ability to save a scene for the various settings. I’ve noticed however, that when saving a scene, it does not record the mix-bus, meaning that if you somehow choose a different mix-bus, and then you load your scene, it does not load your mix-bus but retains the incorrect mix-bus. If you don’t see that you are in the wrong mix-bus, you could re-mix someone else’s monitor mix…. not good. I would also be able to edit the scribble script (only to affect MXBus) to be able to configure off-line before a gig. One last request… separate the Scenes and the Groups buttons to make it easier to tap on the one you want on the small screen. I’ve been using it for two of my bands with an X32, but would like to use it with another using The Soundcraft Ui24r. Any chance for this?

I have been using this app with the Behringer X-Air XR18 for a while now, and it works beautifully. Connects quickly, easily access levels and busses, wonderful for running in-ears and personal mixes. The ONLY issue I have with it currently is: there’s no way to access the Main L/R mix, only the 6 aux sends. This is an issue for the way we run our mixer, and is incredibly frustrating occasionally to go find a laptop to use to control this. It would be nice if the main mix was selectable like any other aux bus, and would easily bring this up to 5 stars. Still though, very well made app!
