There's a very cool free iPad app that can give you powerful control over ANY version of Pro Tools, it's free from the App store and you can do some brilliant things with it.

The App is called 'Actions' and it allows you to map any application to your iPad and then control it in ways you never thought possible. Best of all this App will work with all your applications and with some time spent setting it up you can have a killer control app for your studio.

To get the community started here is a setup created for Mac users for Pro Tools that you can use and modify to suit your needs that we've created. It features a couple of custom keyboard shortcuts that you will need to map with this set-up, but it's all very simple. If you create a Windows versions then let us have it to share.
