TouchOSC Mk1 App Reviews

I like the app but it is next to impossible to set this thing app You have to download at least 2 programs on your computer to sync it and if you want it to work with traktor you need to map the controls. Its just really hard.

Another proof of just how incredible the iPad is for music. TouchOSC is years ahead, fully customizable, open source marvel of an app. It does everything it claims and more. It took me second to set up with the iMac. Now I can control Traktor wirelessly (wifi) from the iPad. Templates are made available for the app but you can find some for free online or even create your own depending of your needs.

With great constant updates from the developer. The setup process (especially for PCs) is time consuming. This would be the only area I can think of for improvement. Otherwise really great for ableton users!

This app is a great example of how to use the multi-touch screen effectively. It doesnt try to "look" like a hardware surface, instead opting to use the space as efficiently as possible; something I really appreciate. Its also very responsive, which is among the most important aspects of a control surface in my opinion. What needs fixing: like most apps that aim to be control surfaces, when it comes to mixing the scribble strips are way too small and in the wrong place. Larger, brighter, and at the bottom of each strip is the way to go. Currently you have to really look for your tracks; when youre working on a 30-40 track project, one spends to much time banking and searching. Second issue with TouchOSC: scrubbing. Id like to scrub the bar/measure and time indicators to move through the project. Otherwise, its my favourite so far.

Paired with retouch and 3rd party midi app on your computer is a bit of a challenge. But when you get it going "pow" its Figure unboxed! Its a Reason controller!! Needs a bit more work in some controls ie nxxt, and tempo control.

perhaps its me but I got this to control Live and I cant seem to get the LiveControl to work with this. I try to download the Livecontrol for Mac and I cant get it open or running (Im on Mountain Lion), I know that its not this developers fault but it is listed as a feature and isnt working. I dont exactly have all of the time necessary to build a template from scratch so right now the app is just sitting there… I love the idea but cant get it working right.

You need to know a bit about network configuration but its perfect. Please update it so it can fit the new displays for the iPhone 5 etc.

Before I explain anything, Im rocking some not so expensive equipment here it is pc with ableton live, novation launchpad, akai LPD 8 and this app on the ipad2. First off, yes it wont work off the bat. As I found out, if your as new to the works as I am, err was, youll be bald before you get it working. Yes I said it, bald. Either through frustrating attempts or just the sheer knowledge you have to learn to get it set up, or maybe not. To be honest. It took me three days and several web pages later to figure it out. If your new to all this then youll have the same problem. That said and done, with the equipment listed above, I managed to get them all working. THIS APP ROCKS. My pos little studio ( to some not me ) got way sweeter when I saw all that this app can do. I dont rely too much on the launch clips on the first page but I use the mixer board and the blah blah blah. All in all, hated it at first but since its working 100%. Almost too cheap for what it can do. It gets five stars if you noticed, because past all the frustrations to get it working, is worth it in the end and its weight in gold.

Should have a trial app to test for functionality what a waste of my 5 bucks.

I love this app, but having that extra screen space on my iPhone 5 is crucial. Id like to see it updated for the iPhone 5 screen soon!

I tried to contact support for this app by several emails and Facebook with no luck, no response from customer services with TouchOSC and live 9 problem. For that reason i could recommend that no one purchase this app for the lack of support.

You can use this with anything. The possibilities are almost endless. You can design your own midi controller lay outs to work with any DAW or VST available.

Id love to be able to try this ish out with all I have planned In my hacker brain.. Harder to set up although renoise comes with a built in server.. Try it out!!

I dont use the computer to make music so ween I bought this I thought it would work with inter app audio or audio bus this is a waste of money if you dont use the computer. Id like my money back since I cant use the program

I bought this to control virtual orchestras in a live setting. Unfortunately, tn TouchOsc Editor is unseable in Yosemite, neither is the midi bridge to use with a computer. Virtually useless until the developer updates...

The editor program runs on a computer and needs Java6. The editor needs to be re- released with more recent Java.

WindowsXPでAbleton live8で使いたいのですが、設定がわかりませんでした。Windows用のLive Controlというソフトを入れるまではいったのですが、Ableton live8側でMIDI信号を受信してくれません(泣)。 Windowsではみなさんどう設定しているのでしょうか。 なんとググればよいでしょうか。手順など、どなたかお知恵をくださると助かります。

Please!! This is best app!

Im using so long time but it works very slowly on iPhone6 Plus...

Excellent app! Best with OSCullator (on MacOS X) ^_^
