Pros and cons of Mackie My Fader app for iPhone and iPad

Mackie My Fader app good for

Excellent app. Works great for controlling your own monitor mixes as well.
I was pleasantly surprised once i hocked up our band to the board and started using this app. Control from anywhere in the venue and digital sound . . . this is great and convinient.
9.99 out of 10. A great piece of gear. Every control at your finger tips. Faster setup and tear down times. Just need a control for the solo volume just to increase for solos. No more big boards or racks.

Some bad moments

This app wont install in a 3GS or early Touch because it requires a forward-facing camera? I see no need for a camera to controll faders. If an IOS device has the power to run IOS6, it should be able to run My Fader too...
Compatible version for the New Master Fader needed ASAP! Brutal without it. Need a fix
Just bought a dl1608 only to find out this app doesnt work with it yet because you updated the main app only so far. Hope people are working weekends because this is BRUTAL
If you have just bought a new Mackie DL mixer, you will have to download the Master Fader 3.0 iPad app, which is not compatible with this version of My Fader. This should be clearly stated here where people download this app, not just over in the Master Fader app details, where it may or may not concern owners of that app. It has been almost 4 months since Master Fader 3 was released and still no news on when this app will be updated for compatibility
I really love this app as it is Works perfectly for my band. I like this app and the Mackie, and I dont know if it is possibly, but to make it perfect, you should add a function that allows the performer to have a wireless headphone via iPhone or iPod via wifi or Bluetooth. Again, I dont know if it is possible, but this I think comes handy to all of us musicians :) Really love this app :)
This app is fantastic! But I would like to say that I bought my DL1608 as a headphone mixer for my nuendo recording system.. It is also fantastic! What would make this system even cooler would be to design a simple iPhone app that acts as a wifi push-to-talk studio talkback com system between an iPhone app and the iPad in the DL1608.. It could be part of the iPad control app or run in the background.. And of course this should allow the audio from the iPhone push to talk app to be routed to the IPad input in the DL1608 via wifi..
