Hello Slau,
Thanks for taking the time to respond to my question. I have been reading up on 
the Elements interface now and am very interested. 
I have a question, can you access all of the necessary settings through the PT 
panel to take advantage of the Elements features.

Thanks, 
Nate

microphone suggestions

Thats annoying as I was still considering an ensemble one day and they updated 
the ensemble to use the elements control software now.  But if the iOS app 
works then thats a start. Hopefully One can pair iOS to the device or desktop 
app independently. Thats the downside with the Focusrite stuff, you need 
sighted assistance to pair the iOS app to the desktop app.
