Mackie Master Fader Classic
***Master Fader 4 is now available. Please search the App Store and update to Master Fader 4 for the latest features and bug fixes. Master Fader Classic is for use with iOS 6, 7 and 8. It is no longer supported or tested and is not designed for iOS 9 and is provided for compatibility with older installs only.***
In order to provide additional flexibility for DL1608 and DL806 users, Mackie has released Master Fader Classic. Master Fader Classic is a separate app that is based on the simpler feature set of Master Fader v2.1. Having the option to keep your system on the version of Master Fader originally installed gives you the flexibility to control when and how to best upgrade. It also means that if Master Fader v2.1 does the job, you can continue to use it as long as you like.
Master Fader Classic can be installed on the same iPad alongside the latest version of Master Fader v4.0. It’s important to remember that the mixer firmware must match the version of Master Fader you wish to mix with. If your DL1608/DL806 is loaded with the firmware for Master Fader v2.1, Master Fader Classic will connect and work right away. However, if you have already upgraded you mixer firmware with Master Fader v4.0, you will need to downgrade the firmware in your mixer to use Master Fader Classic.
