Why no iPad app yet? Anyone know if it's in pipeline?

I've been using Splashtop HD on my ASUS Transformer Honeycomb tablet (truly awesome device btw). You can see and control SONAR in all it's glory - for $9.99.

Basically you just install the Splashtop streamer on whatever computer you want to see and control. Then you just pick the machine from the list of available computers on your network and viola - full touchscreen control (or in the case of the Transformer - touchscreen or qwerty dock) of SONAR.

I'm sure glad I got a Tranzport while they were still being made. Works great out of the box, no tweaking, no stinkin' wifi connection required.

But I live in fear of the inevitable day when my trusty Tranzport will die, as all electronic devices seem to do, so I'm glad this new class of remote control software has come along. Now, if the old Tranzport can just continue to function long enough for these apps to mature...

twisted6s, perhaps you need to add the port listed in rtpmidi to your router? That was mentioned on the software developers forum. seems like you have everything set up correct if you've added your computer in rtpmidi, connected your ipod/pad in rtpmidi, created a mackie control control surface in sonar using the rtp virtual midi ports and sonar shows connecting. Once I had that it was just a matter of reseting AC-7. Perhaps a firewall is blocking the connection either on the computer or your router. This is why I often dislike computers. seems like so many differences for causing problems

Don't think apple has anything to do with it.

In RTPmidi you will see boxes for My Sessions, Directory, and Participants. When you create a new session (or click on an existing one) you will see who is set up to connect to it in the Participants window. You should be sure that your iPad and the PC Sonar is on are shown in the window for the session. You will also see some information about latency for each participant. If you see nothing but question marks in the latency column next to the participant name in the Participants window you can assume it is not communicating at this point for some reason. If the iPad you are running AC-7 on to control Sonar shows up in the Directory when you click on the session but NOT in the Participants window then highlight it and click on the Connect button under the Directory window.

Hope this can help. Another thing to consider is if you have a weak WiFi signal or have multiple WiFi connection points in the studio/house. The iPad does NOT wander between access points correctly. This is a known problem with the iPad. Once again, look in RTPmidi for those question marks in the latency column next to the session participant in the Participants window in RTPmidi.
