The new Web control surface is really cool and useful. I am using it to let the vocalist adjust their volume levels and control the record/pause/stop with his/her cellphone. Works like a charm

The Bakers should look into that. Imagine, no need to whine about an app that is not compatible with your brand of (modern) cellphone.
