LV1 has a suite of great apps to choose from to mix from your iPad, iPhone, or even on your Mac/PC (not your host pc) And it keeps getting better while as they update the app and add features we need.
Still, Mixing Station has become the standard of what mixing on a phone or tablet should look like. And the customization they off is unlike any other mixing apps. Your competitors like Behringer, Midas, Yamaha, Allen & Heath among others; are already there with their consoles.
Why not let Waves LV1 integrate into the Mixing Station App.
This would only make the Waves LV1 system more appealing to current users and new users.

David (developer of MS) has addressed this numerous times. It is not currently possible with the type of control that LV1 uses.
Which is why we’re asking Waves to make some kind of change to make it possible.
I love Mixing Station, use it all the time (especially for A&H desks… can’t stand their interface and would rather set it up from my phone). The Waves app being limited to tablets is annoying - tablets don’t fit into your pocket.
I presume an OSC interface for LV1 is what would be needed, since that’s what the others have, and that has got to be easier than building a phone app. Heck, Waves could even partner with David and make Mixing Station the official way to remotely mix from a phone. (Trust me, it doesn’t devalue the MyMon app at all - no way am I letting musicians use MS!)
Right, but that’s a ground up code rewrite for Waves. I get why it would be great. Why not let musicians use MS and lock them to their BUS only?
I doubt it. It’s more likely an adapter from OSC to whatever their control protocol is, that’s assuming they don’t want to just release the control protocol.
If they can unlock themselves, then they’ll do it (accidentally, probably) and start messing with my mix. I’m not working with bands made up of audio engineers who can (or want to) handle something as complex as Mixing Station - the simpler, the better.
Also I guess I’ve just had bad experiences, in that 100% of the musicians who’ve used Mixing Station for monitors (who mostly have been audio engineers…) have messed with FOH EQ settings. Compared to 0% who have used the IEM app. Those seem like good odds.
