Our Workstations Have Evolved, From Analog to Tablet
The single greatest advantage of tablet mixing is mobility. We can now walk the venue, tune
from any spot, and adjust monitor mixes directly from the stage.

Analog Consoles: The tactile,
one-knob-per-function era.
Digital Boards: Physical faders
meet digital processing.
Tablet Control: The dawn of
untethered, mobile mixing.
For professional workflows, a single screen is a bottleneck.
We need the mobility of a tablet with the at-a-glance overview of a full console.
High-strength magnets hold
iPads securely in place,
even when shaken.
Ventilation ports ready for
optional coolers for outdoor,
high-temperature events.
Rear L-shape adapters allow
for clean cable management
and continuous power.
The system is built on reliable, professional components. By offloading processing to
rack-mounted DSP cores, the setup becomes modular, powerful, and scalable.
The primary technical advantage of 96k processing in live sound is not audible fidelity-it's
lower latency. This is critical for mixes where timing is paramount, like in-ear monitors.
But what if we could achieve-or even beat-that ow-latency performance without the 96k price tag?
By using two dedicated M32C core processors-one for FOH and one for monitors-we achieve an independent, ultra-low
latency of just 0.7ms for each critical mix. This is better performance than many 96k systems can provide for a monitor path.
True redundancy isn't about having a spare unit in the truck. It's about designing a system that can
withstand component failure in real-time without interrupting the show. Most consoles don't have this.
Each iPad operates on a separate
IP network.
APs use non-overlapping sections of the
5GHz band to eliminate interference.
Each iPad is aware of the other network
and can switch automatically if its
primary connection is lost.
If an access point fails or a cable is cut, the affected iPad automatically reconnects to the redundant
network. You have time to troubleshoot with zero interruption to the show.
The concept is scalable. Imagine
a four-iPad setup for even more
control.
Get rid of the physical board
entirely. A flight case with core
processors, stage boxes, and the
iPad rig is all you need.
Small, cheap, and easy to
transport. Carrying a redundant
backup system is now trivial.
