element-Vs

Really works incredibly well and controls are nice and smooth. Definitely a no brainer purchase if you have an iPad and use Davinci Resolve. Much more portable than a panel and also you can bounce between pages to access additional functions without mousing around. This behaves like 4 different tangent panels in one. Just buy it!

I just set this up with Davinci Resolve and love it! Others have said that it’s hard to get it working, but if you go to www.tangentwave.co.uk/tangent-support/ and select Element-VS from the product list you can download a user manual that gives great step by step instructions on how to connect it with your computer and software. It was easy!

I purchased this for $7.99 as opposed to the original $79.99 price point. At the lower price, I think it’s a steal for anyone who wants something a bit more precise then a mouse for color grading. Otherwise I do wish you could adjustment the sensitivity of the virtual dials/trackpad. Setting up did require some reading/troubleshooting but it’s been working fine ever since.

I bought this app because I use a Blackmagic Mini panel at work that I absolutely love but I can’t justify the $3,000 cost to buy my own to have at home for my personal projects. The setup for this app was frustrating because they don’t have great instructions, but I eventually figured it out. My biggest gripe with this app is that it needs to be updated for new iPads to remove the black bars on the sides. Also, the Kb page has to be used with the Bt page, which means you end up swiping between the pages a lot and it is kind of clunky. I have a $20 drawing stand for my iPad and I definitely recommend picking up one if you use this app a lot since it puts your iPad at a better angle to use this app on a desk. This is a really solid app to turn your iPad into a color panel for $10 and I like it. I haven’t purchased a Tangent Ripple panel yet but this app is supposed to work with it to extend its functionality which sounds awesome.

Needs to be updated. Will stop working with updated iPad OS.
