Software installation was simple but I encountered a few glitches that I solved by reading their FAQ on their site. Before purchasing this software I checked that the application of IC Steinberg Cubase worked with my installation to avoid unpleasant surprises next Wifi.

I work with Cubase 5.5 on Windows 7 64bit and ipad 2. I tried TouchOSC just before but I could not get it to work, too many settings you had to use Pure Data and MIDI Yoke and I pick up nothing to this stuff.

Along with the steps of the manual and the FAQ site of the publisher, V-Control installs easily, I had to download a redistributable from Microsoft and disable Bluetooth in the IPAD and it worked well .

The link ipad / PC is done by wifi and it works pretty well, it's pretty responsive ipad good driver cubase and cubase changes are reflected in the IPAD.

V-control essentiellemnt allows to control the mixer in Cubase, the fontions transportation, automation, inserts, EQ, etc. send. The only downside is that v-control Hui uses the protocol and it's not particularly convenient to control the plugins but it is feasible that the accuracy leaves something to be desired. In terms of automation of faders, it's pretty responsive, accurate and meets the touch, but I have to get used to working with the touch screen of IPAD. As against the pan are not super accurate, I do not see myself doing a whole mix with it alone, rather it comes in addition to the keyboard and mouse.

Overall this application uses the functionality of a BCF 2000 in Mackie Control mode but with a little more user-friendly. This is a great alternative to a hardware controller type AlphaTrack or BCF is not perfect, I hope there will be improvements on the implementation of certain functions, but it is fairly comprehensive, it works rather well and the wireless side is quite convenient.

Not cheap but compared to the price of a real controller, it's not that expensive, and I think it's better than BCF 2000 (touch automation features for Cubase). The version for Protools looks a little more successful than that for Cubase though.
