Users can re-sequence the preset buttons in the app by holding them down and dragging them to the desired location, and it can be reset to default with the touch of a button. The app has buttons for Clear Layer All, Cut and an animated Auto-trans button. It even shows which preset is currently selected just above the Clear Layer All button.

The Alford Kit gives owners the capability to save the apps preset button settings to a show file within the app that can be recalled and even shared via e-mail. The custom .alf file can then be opened on any other iPad running the Alford Kit.


Those connected to a Encore Controller find the app gives them access up to 900 preset buttons. When connecting to a ScreenPRO-II, the app dlivers access to 36 presets.
