I paid $49 for the full version of V Control. Could NOT get it to work properly. Spent a lot of time trying everything their support told me to try. Never did get it working. Finally gave up. Total waste of $49 and my time. Sad, I REALLY wanted it to work, too.

V-Control Pro works for me, though I mostly use it to control Sonar's console rather than plugins,

Another possibility is Microsoft's (free) Windows Remote Desktop application, though that drops the PC screen back to the login screen when the main display is redirected to the remote display. Still quite useful in all kinds of ways though.

Personally I'd like Cakewalk to come up with a remote tablet application of their own, along the lines of Apple's Logic remote controller.

tlw: A Cakewalk control surface app for iPad and other mobile devices would be awesome!

I'd like to be able to use the AC-X app. It has 16 faders on one page! Don't know if it works with SONAR. I've emailed them about it with no reply as yet. I like the look of the GUI

Just be careful with TouchDAW.

Really nice App, but it seems the rtpMIDI driver causes my PC to go all Blue Screen on me. I run Win 7 x64 and the moment I enable the midi driver the pc starts crashing.
 
Very disappointing as I was about to buy a tablet for this.
 
Anyone else having this issue?

I run rptMIDI without issue. There are other drivers you might be able to use if it causing issues for you. Copperlan comes to mind. ipMIDI (not free) is another.

I run rptMIDI here with V-Control Free with no problems...

Other than the limited use granted by the free version.

What kind of problems are you seeing?

Hey Keni, I tried that exact same thing before. rtpMIDI with V-Control free, can't get V-Control to control SONAR X3e. What settings in SONAR preferences do I use?

Hi Tony...

I'll look tonight when I have power... It's simple but could be confusing as you have to set two programs for it to become available to Sonar...
