SmartSDR for iOS Mic level to high after SmartSDR 3.9.18 update.

After installing SmartSDR 3.9.18 on my Flex 6600 the Mic level on my IPAD, with the latest level updates, the mic level does not go low enough to allow using any compression. I now have the level set to 1 to not overdrive the radio.

Also noticed my Power setting was changed to 100watts which was previously set to 40 watts.

I discovered that the controls, required to re-adjust the IPAD Mic, are only visible if the app is in “iPad Audio” mode. I normally operate with the "iPad audio", OFF. this enables audio going  to the Radio speaker output. In that mode the IPAD microphone controls are no longer available.

When I use the IPAD locally, there is no access to the IPAD Mic level controls. This might be an area of improvement for SmartSDR IOS.   Now that I figured this out I can switch to “Ipad Audio” ON, make the adjustments, and switch back to “Ipad Audio” OFF, to Operate.
