Hi MC,

I really appreciate your quick answer!

Could you give me a little more detail why you would choose the 4, and not the 2 or 3?
I really just need it for controlling totalmix, so I thought I could get away with a few less money to spend .... but maybe I forgot considering something important?!

Thank you!

Oh, and by the way, I'll be using a SSD drive mounted inside an external case... I didn't do any heavy testing until now, but at least a small test where not a single error occured...

That makes sense, thanks so much!

Hi Philippe,
thanks very much for your reply, that's really good to know, since I just picked up my "new" used ipad 4
I'm really excited about using it live, the only thing I need now is a connection kit... is there any specific camera connection kit for the ipad 4 (!) that I should be using with the UFX? Any recommendations? When I google "ipad camera connection kit" I mainly find the ones for older iPads (2, 3 etc), that's kind of confusing me... would something like that (see link below) for example work with the UFX and iPad4?

Thanks in advance!

Like MC just said, with your version of the iPad, the Apple (f..g xpensive) Original Lightning to UsB adapter is required, and I would just add : a black gaffer tape that I stick to the cables at the very beginning of the gig to avoid reccurent deconnections. In this situation, I even use a 5 meters USB exention and it works perfectly.
My only regret is the tiny little rotary button of the mics gain control that may 'jump' to saturn if  extra care, clean ipad screen and washed hands is not met during the gig (and who does a gig with a cool mind, washed hands and clean screen .. Hey, we play in jazz clubs !!)
There may be an option for 'vertical sliding command only of the gain', I will check. But if not, that would be my little request for October 2014...
Best regards,
Philippe

Thanks for all your advice, really love the tipps about topics where I didn't actually ask any questions about

I finally got my connector kit now... almost everything works as it's supposed to, but there are 3 things I was wondering about:

1) about an hour ago I messed around with my UFX and the iPad app and everything worked just fine. About half an hour ago I had to leave for a short an appointment, and now, when I came back, the totalmix app was totally frozen. I could close it by pressing the ipad's home button but when I opened it again nothing changed. The only solution was restarting the ipad.... I gotta admit: I'm a little scared now. Imagine doing some soundcheck, then let a few other artist do their show and then it's my turn, there could be a few hours between my soundcheck and my actual performance.. what if I start performing and realize I'm not 100% satisfied with my monitoring mix for example, then I'd like to use the app again of course to make some minor adjustments... well, if in that case the app would be frozen now that would be quite horrible -.- .. any tipps on how to avoid such sitations?

2) I also realized that the app is only working when the ipad get's booted up freshly. As soon as I disconnect the UFX and then reconnect it, i gotta reboot my ipad, does your setup also work like this?

3) my third question is about the workspaces... is there a way to export the workspaces I save inside the app? For backup for example?

Thanks again in advance, I'm looking forward to some helpful replies

Oh, yes that's the case... should I do a downgrade or will there be a Totalmix update soon?

Nice to know, thanks for the hint!

This can't be real, so I've spent a few hunred euros just to realize it's not working? -.-
The only solution will be selling and buying a "new" one with older firmware?
Strange world ^^

Thanks for the information anyways!

Yeah it hurts even more due to the fact that it WAS on 7.x when I got it, but I'm a total apple noob (it's my first apple device), so I didn't know about the problems 8.x is making... well.. yeah.. shit happens. I hope it get's solved pretty soon, I want to play the next live gigs at the beginning of 2015... I hope apple is fast enough.
