Ado, I numbered your points to help with responses.

1 - Roland explained that M decided the safest place to perform edits was on C-PC, C-Mac or Control screen. Avoids danger of accidental iPad edits by kids/guests etc. I can see the logic. It could be a setup option however as it is on the Control screen. Not a big issue perhaps.

2 - I agree. A sound would be useless as I'd never hear it over the music smile. Maybe empty tabs could be greyed out or a different colour.

3 - Roland noted this issue on Saturday and was planning to mention it to the dev team today. It was unclear what causes it as sometimes it is a problem and other times it is OK. I was able to readily demonstrate it to him so the issue is clear and it exists in the old and new app regardless of IOS version used.

4, 5, 6 - I agree. well noted.

Rgds,
Nick
