Tangent releases a Beta of it’s Warp Engine for Mapping Color grading
Tangent Beta Program – Tangent : Tangent
This new engine in the beta allows you to not only do a custom mapping for DaVinci, but for other programs that don’t use the panel, though you must go in and program the positions on screen as it is basically faking mouse moves. So not full customization (not possible unless Black Magic allows it which is highly unlikely.
And everyone will need to program for their own monitor setup, which is a pain, but once programmed will work.

It basically shows that the whole software is in here, but not activated for iPad yet, so that means it will likely be added in eventually.
I have seen people who are so negative on DaVinci for iPad, but I am psyched for it. To me it is basically the first full pro software for the ipad and I can’t wait to use it it with my Blackmagic camera.
