DLive OneMix is a version of the dLive MixPad application that ensures control to a single auxiliary mix of monitors, to give the musician an individualized mastery of his personal monitor without affecting the others or the main FOH mix. A user can configure multiple iPads so that each of the artists can have a custom set of controls.

It is also possible to connect multiple MixPads to work in conjunction with a dLive control surface or the Director software and provide simultaneous control, including independent PAFL buses. This feature allows one engineer to use the control surface for mixing the FOH and another an iPad to mix the stage monitors..
