First time user. How to set up SF with IPAD

    Hello all
    Im trying to use SF on my Ipad connected to my mac pro running Protools. The SF app on the Ipad shows a blank page even though I have selected to have the basic starter package so I should be up and running from the start.
    Can anyone recommend a youtube vid that explains how to set this up?
    Best wishes, Mikkel

          Thank you Kitch for helping out. I can get that specific faderbank on to my ipad. Thats great. I was however hoping for a more easy out of the box Protools shortcuts kind of thing on my ipad. A bit more like the Avid control, but with the option to open plugins, audiosuites etc. That looks a little more harder to do here.
          Thanks again.

          Best wishes

          1. Hi Mikkel :)

            I would recommend looking into Decks on mobile devices. There are tons of pre-made Decks available in various packages on the Store. These Decks are much easier to set up (and make yourself) and they can also be shown on iPads.

                      FWIW, I had a similar problem, which was due to having an older version of the Soundflow app on my iPad. I was a little embarrassed to discover :)
