I have an iPad Pro with the Apple Pencil. It is a great setup for drawing and it works even better with an app called Procreate. I'm getting off topic here so back to Astropad. You install on the iPad and your Mac computer, start the program, start Pianoteq and your Mac screen appears on your iPad. Using your finger (no need for the Apple Pencil) you can fully control Pianoteq while sitting at your digital piano. With Roland and Bluetooth it might be able to be done wirelessly. The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.

Via a wired connection or wirelessly (WiFi, Bluetooth?). Do you feel any response/screen update lag compared to using the Mac directly?
