Astropad blue trial#
No free trial on base app, 7 days on Pro. In PS, I had issues with blotching at the start of my lines and occasionally causing the the PS interface to become unresponsive. With low latency the drawing experience was quite smooth. Not registering strokes most of the time.ĬSP: Performed well. I expected this to perform better than it did, but in some instances it did well.

If you want more touch gestures and pressure sensitivity and tilt to be able to draw, you’ll have to sign up for Pro which also has an annual subscription. The base app of Duet Display simply turns your iPad into a second monitor. Also tested the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite with Eas圜anvas Duet Pro If you are interested in knowing more about the iPad Pro for digital art, then check out my review here. I wrote a more in-depth piece on using Eas圜anvas with a Samsung Galaxy Tab over on Android Police which you can find here. Note that on the Play and App stores you will find two versions of Eas圜anvas, one of which is the subscription version. I had the same thing with Duet and ProjectBlue. The fingure gestures in Photoshop didn’t work, but that may be because of my Ps version and not an issue with Eas圜anvas. So this felt like it really did the trick to turn my iPad into a small Cintiq-like tablet. It also worked all the programs I tested without much issue. It performs so smoothly, handling strokes in quick succession with ease. Free 3-day trialĮas圜anvas wins of the three programs. For example, I have two monitors, and instead of having my iPad as a third, I can rather select one of the other two displays to mirror. Great drawing experience.ĭisplay: Able to extend and mirror, OR mirror a specific display if you are using multiple. Krita, CSP, Sketchbook, Photoshop: All worked well. I actually feel like the latency was ever so slightly better with Eas圜anvas Pro. It was on par with Astropad’s Project Blue for Windows which is still in Beta. This was the third of the programs I tested and was very excited by how responsive it was. There’s a decent trial and cheap annual subscription. Wonderfully smooth in responsive in most apps. Testing out Eas圜anvas Pro vs Astropad on my Windows laptop Eas圜anvas Pro Now, onto the meat and axes of turning that iPad into a Cintiq. I found it to be surprisingly smooth on mine. The performance on Wi-Fi might depend on how good your router is and the signal strength. USB will obviously be the best option to ensure consistently lower latency. I tested both the wireless and USB connections. I’ve seen others use Blender as well, but haven’t tested this myself yet because I’m still a total Blender noob.
Astropad blue software#
So it’s good to search a bit more, maybe head over to Reddit and check if your combo would work before you make any purchases.Īrt software tested includes Adobe Photoshop 2014, Sketchbook, Clip Studio Paint EX, and Krita 5.
I haven’t had the opportunity to test out other tablets or Mac with this. Things may perform differently with your hardware and software combination. This has been my experience with the different apps with only that combination. I’m testing the 2020 12.9″ iPad Pro and an Asus TUF FX504GE gaming laptop running Windows 10. If you are looking for drawing tablet options, head on over here.
Now you can enjoy the portability of an iPad or Galaxy tablet, while also getting to use it with your laptop sotware when you’re at your desk. But what if you could use your iPad as a sort of mini Cintiq as well, killing two goblins with one swing of the sword? Well you can with apps like those listed below. I’ve often seen questions come up where a younger artist is trying to decide between getting an iPad or a pen display to hook up to their computer.
