So, I mix wirelessly all the time. I use a laptop with x32edit for all my EQ, FX, and Channel strip duties. I also use a tablet which pretty much always has my DCA's up on it. This way I always have my finger on a fader for solos, while I can use a mouse to navigate the rest of my console. I have been using a Dragon Touch R8 which was a halfway decent 8" tablet. Basically an Ipad mini competitor running android. It was cheap and easy, but it died. I do have an older Lenovo 7" tablet that I can use as a backup, but I want something bigger.
So, I need a new tablet. All it has to do is reliably run the x32 app or master fader. I am not biased in any way for android. I like "i" products, but the android tablets were cheaper at the time, which is the only reason I bought it.
I am now shopping for either a used iPad or a new cheaper Android Tablet. What I need to know is: Which iPad is the best to avoid because it is too old? Should I not buy anything old enough to have a 30 pin connector? Or will those old 3's and 4's work well for me? Is there a "value leader" in the android market? What works, and what should I avoid?
Basically I want something that has: A sturdy build, 8" or larger screen (bigger is better), great Wifi performance, and will run it's X32 app solidly.
So let me know what you are using!
BTW, Here's a pic of my setup....
