iRFR - BTS

At first I was like. Woah! That's steep! Then when I discovered the profits go to either behind the scenes or the other charity I was happy to buy the app. As a remote it has all the functionality I could need, especially to check focus of cues while on stage, bring up any channel I want at any intensity for lamp checks. And all I had to do was set my airport express to bridge mode and plug in an Ethernet cable. Fantastic! There's so much in this app. It's a dream for any tech working in a theatre with the compatible desks.

Forced to by it because ETC did away with legacy apps (should be free if you bought classic) made the move because TouchOSC doesn’t have key click or haptic, this new app is quirky and doesn’t have key click or haptic. Not sure why it’s not an option. Guess I’ll go back to TouchOSC till ETC finds a way to not allow it.

If you’re running of ETC this is awesome. Saves time without having to run back and forth between your board and your fixtures.

My iPad wont connect to my board. My boss’s android connects no problem. I have the same IP address and connections as before. Does anyone have any ideas?

I love that I can leave my Nomad system behind now and 90% work off my iPad. Would make it better: Magic sheets and multi direct select layout. Magic sheets is a given. That should have been their first concern when making this. Having to switch between direct selects is so frustrating slow. Why I only have 3 stars: You can’t label anything. You make a group and you just have to remember what group number it is because there is no way of labeling it. Blows my mind this was left out.

It pretty much does what it should. It’s no replacement for a console, and you can’t patch fixtures, which would be one of the best possible uses for it. Also, it needs an update to take iPhone X bottom safe areas into account; right now the tab buttons overlap it. Add patching and fix the layout issue, and it’s a five-star rating!

This app makes is so so easy to control my EOS console while roaming onstage. It is so much easier to pull out my phone and use the simple and easy-to-use app than pulling out a nomad or running back up to front of house every time I am checking things onstage. Thank you ETC for this app! Love it!

It appears this app no longer works with ETC Ion consoles. When we attempt to connect to its IP address, it doesn’t recognize or read it as a valid address. Oddly enough the classic (legacy) version of this app does work. I expected more from a company with such a valuable product.

The app worked fine on my iPhone 5S until the latest iOS 12 update. Perhaps a patch is needed?!?

Disappointed. Textual. Doesn’t utilize the graphical Power, flexibility, intuitiveness and beauty of the iPad. It should basically be a touchable, shapeable Magic Sheet. Not a hard representation of the light board face. You were ahead of your time in light board software. But need to catch up in the current paradigm: wireless screens. I’ve ideas. If you want, get in touch.
