Hi Steve. Thanks for your reply earlier this week. That’s great you can use the dock without an iPad and that the Avid S1 is accessible. I know you said the iOS version of the ProTools control app isn’t accessible. Is the desktop version? I’ve been reading a couple PDF guides for the Avid S1 and the guide for using EUCON control surfaces to get familiar with how they work. Navigating and performing functions is a little bit different, compared to when I used the C24 board. Also, what audio interface is accessible to use with the Avid S1 and the dock? I’ll be doing postproduction work doing editing and mixing in stereo in probably 5.1 surround. Katie
