Limits & Capacities

The hard numbers in one place — what Version T manages, what the console holds, and the ranges values move in.

The hard numbers, in one place. Two things set the ceiling: what Version T manages, and what the connected console can hold. Version T’s own limits are fixed; the console’s capacities depend on the desk and its current configuration.

What Version T manages

These are the tracked structures you set up per show. They’re the same on every console.

Version T also keeps naming history to speed up setup: up to 20 previous names per DCA, and a shared dictionary of up to 200 names for autocomplete.

Console capacities

The connected console sets the real channel ceiling. Mix-bus counts (groups, auxes, matrices, mains) are read from the desk at login, so the working numbers depend on the console’s own configuration — the table below is the protocol maximum for the Allen & Heath dLive family.

WING and X32 / M32 families expose their own fixed topologies; Virtual32, the built-in X32/M32 emulator, presents roughly 30,000 parameters.

Requirements

Version T needs iPadOS 26 or later and an A12 chip or newer (2018 iPads on). M1 or better is recommended for large channel counts and heavy metering. The iPad and console must share the same control network — Wi-Fi, or wired via a USB-C-to-Ethernet adapter (wired recommended for shows).
