SoundCheck is not working on my iPad Pro!

Hi, I did everything you said, and it's still playing songs at all levels of volume, I even doublechecked to make sure I have Sound Check selected. Why will it just not work, this makes it impossible for me to use on gigs, as I can't have random songs blasting through the speakers, I really was concerned it was going to blow them, it was so loud.

Oh, and why does it tell me "camera is covered", when it's on the other side of the device? How is it supposed to scan my face if it's not even facing me? Oh, I see there is one on this side, and nothing at all is covering it, so why the message, and inability to use my face to unlock it?

Yes, I'm experiencing this same sound issue, just playing the iPad, without any external devices.

This is quite frustrating, as my thousand dollar iPad sits at home, while I still have to use an ancient iPod to play on my gigs. Some tunes on that are lower than others, but not have as dramatic a sound variance as on the iPad. Is there some way the SoundCheck can be made to work?

I've got no additional audio apps installed (I'm still trying to figure out how to navigate and operate the iPad), and I'm not using any outside source, just the very basic format of playing the tracks, via an output into my mixer, and out the speakers. Something I've had zero issues with, using iPods or even mini-disc players. It puzzles, and greatly disappointments me that the latest & greatest device can't do so basic a task. Also, why if I can play tracks consecutively or shuffled, it's not possible to set it to stop after playing each track? It can't be that difficult, and I'm sure this is a feature requested by many, for many years, as it was with the iPods. It made no sense then, and makes even less sense today, especially with so many more musicians using iPads to supplement gigs with fewer players.

What do you mean the feature does work as expected? It does NOT, and a higher level tech on the phone, the "genius" at my Apple Store, and his manager, had no clue as to how to fix it. The tech person at Apple tried reinstalling the OS, but it kept stopping, saying something was corrupted, this on both my iMac & Macbook Pro, yet neither he, the genius, nor the store manager had any solution for it. Nor, did they even try or suggest how I can fix that when I'm playing a track, and hit the Pause button, half the time nothing happens!! So I have to touch it multiple times, before it finally stops.. None of this is acceptable, as that is the primary reason I bought it, and it doesn't work properly, and no one seems capable of fixing it, or even has any idea of what I could do, beyond using my 10 year old Macbook Pro, or my 20 year old pair of iPods, which work fine, even with their "outdated" technology and OS!

Is there any reason why I shouldn't ask for a refund or replacement? It's currently a thousand-dollar paperweight...

I simply transferred my music library from my computer's "Music" app, to the iPad. It's the same songs I have on my iPods, When I play them using my iPod, there's some variation in the sound levels, but not the kind of radical variations I get from running them off my iPad. And if SoundCheck works as it should, why when I first searched this site, and the web about the issue, I saw many others complaining about it not working? It seems obvious to me, that if others are also finding it not working (and suggesting using 3rd party apps, or other workarounds, like re-setting levels on their 1,000s of songs manually) that perhaps there is an issue with this feature.

As for where they came from, pretty much everywhere, CDs, downloads, etc.
