A360 Display A360 Display™ is an iOS app that runs on your iOS device and communicates with a WiFi router connected to the Ethernet network port on the rear panel of the D800 or D800-Dante A-Net Distributor. A360 Display enhances the user interface of the A360 Personal Mixer with channel names and user-selectable views that show the volume levels, stereo placement, and metering information for every channel in your mix.
