As an all-in-one solution, Universal Control’s hardware control options vary by product. Discover what it can do for your supported Fender and PreSonus gear.

Fender Quantum-series interfaces

For Quantum-series interface owners, Universal Control lets you create monitor mixes and control loopback streams. For Quantum HD interfaces, you can also remotely control preamp levels and speaker switching. To use the Universal Control app, you must connect your audio interface to a computer running Universal Control for macOS or Windows and connect your iOS device to the same network as your computer.

StudioLive Series III mixers

Universal Control provides touch-control of your complete mix, plus dynamics, EQ control, effects, monitor mixes, DCA groups, and even AVB networking and routing. You also get control of deeper features like Scenes, Projects, and granular permission control—including max output level limit.

Take control of your StudioLive Series III mix from the audience’s perspective, where it matters most. To use the Universal Control app, you must connect your iOS device to the same wireless network as your StudioLive mixer. Note: Universal Control for StudioLive is optimized for iPad use. A separate app, QMix-UC app, is optimized for iPhone screen sizes.

Legacy PreSonus audio interfaces

For legacy PreSonus audio interfaces (Quantum ES, Revelator, Studio-series), Universal Control Surface offers powerful zero-latency hardware-based monitor control—everything you need to create high-quality monitor mixes and more. To use the Universal Control app, you must connect your audio interface to a computer running Universal Control for macOS or Windows and connect your iOS device to the same network as your computer.

System Requirements

● Control of supported mixers requires that the mobile device be connected to the same wireless network as a StudioLive Series III mixer.
● Control of supported Fender and PreSonus audio interfaces requires that the mobile device be connected to the same wireless network as a computer running Universal Control for macOS and Windows, with the audio interface connected to the computer.

Ratings and reviews

Completely useless, deserves 0 stars. It's available to install on cell phones (I have a Pixel 7 Pro) but doesn't work because the app doesn't work "at this screen size" according to the error message. If you're not in the very small niche of people who use an Android tablet, don't bother downloading this app because it's just a waste of time.

Pretty unfortunate that they chose to just fail to launch if the screen resolution isn't what expecting. I can see giving a warning but allowing the user proceed, but this? Come on guys. The workaround is laughable and doesn't even work on a brand new galaxy S24 FE. If your device policy restricts you from installing APKs from the internet, the workaround to the workaround is also a nonstarter. Yes the app is free but the mixer was very much not and this is not a good look for presonus.

Screen size, it would be better to warn the user it is not optimized for phones and still give the option to use it on the phone, I don't know that anyone is using it for running a show but for a quick monitor change or to mute a channel it is super helpful. Please add the ability to use the app on phones back.
