Worked for 1 week then broke my heart
You gotta think that at some point we’re gonna look back at all this mismatched incompatibility software nonsense and just cry a river of tears. Why are we still dealing with these issues? Why is avid so far behind? How come things work for a few days and then things update and nothing works anymore and why am I still writing the same types of reviews 25 years after the first one? will nothing ever change? Will I live a life as a frustrated artist where none of the software garbage works? Just so fed up. I don’t even know what to do anymore. I’m so tired of being in the moment of inspiration and having to drop what I’m doing and deal with avid. I just hate this company so much. I don’t even know how to describe it. They are the antithesis of creativity in the enemy of inspiration. Nothing ever works… there’s always some bug and there’s always some update that makes this entire system break down like a house of cards. I can’t describe my frustrations with this company without wanting to smash up their hardware and my phone.
United StatesWill not prompt to register
The instructions for this application clearly state that it will prompt you to register the app with your avid account, however no such prompt appears when you open the app and so you cannot download the partner software for your desktop. Do not bother to download this software because you will find yourself in a world of frustration.
United StatesThis app is trash
I was thinking of buying the S1 control surface but will never buy it because you need Avid Control for it. One day it works, then all of a sudden it’s no longer working. Once my pro tools subscription ends I’ll probably not renew it.
United StatesNOT FOR IOS 17
There are so many bad reviews about how terrible this app is. But Zyhis app is only rated for iOS 13-16. So the only reason it isn’t working is because Avid hasn’t bothered to update the app for the latest software. I can’t even get my computer and my iPad to communicate through thud app. Just be patient and don’t be so harsh.
United StatesFast and reliable control surface.
Absolutely amazing to see features that used to cost thousands of dollars packaged up for free with Avid Control. Big thumbs up. I have it running 24/7 in a pro studio. Near flawless performance.
United StatesWon't Work Without Forking Over Some Dough
Yeah, you can download the app for free, but it only works if you got an activation card with an (expensive) paid Avid hardware controller. It would be nice if they told you that here. Typical Avid.
United StatesHail Olympia!
Why are most of us not seeing this app work? The developer says download Eucon but all routes just take you back to this useless app. Avid isn’t big on helping anymore since they recently moved on up to Mt. Olympus, leaving us mortals to try and sort out this Calculus & fend for ourselves.
