Amazing App for İpad .if You are dj!!
Delay kills pleasure
Instead of providing existing users with an update or special price for the new version the developer just renamed it and ABANDONED existing users!
The documentation is lacking, and I was not able to get this software working with touch bridgeOSC. Couldn’t find any recent tutorials on getting this to work, either. It’s a shame because this software has so much promise and I really want to love it, but the barrier to entry is just too high to make it worth it right now
This is an incredibly useful app. It works great for designing templates and triggering MIDI commands from a custom layout. It needs some polish though. Lots of little annoyances are present, like screen rotation issues, a clunky app interface, and a companion layout design app that has been neglected for years. Overall, I would 100% recommend this app. I just wish the developers would put a little more time into cleaning up the user experience.
After reading some of the reviews I had high hopes for this as a control surface on my pc for Ableton and other software. However I cannot gets the OSC portion of the software to work. Core midi works just fine, but as the editor will not sync via the bridge I’m stuck with a bunch of templates that won’t work, especially for Ableton Live. Tech support is responsive but not helping with the main issue and by the looks of it I’m far from alone in it not syncing properly via OSC. If I get resolution I’ll update my review, but for now 2 stars as at least I can use a few templates in other software.
At least it was for me. Somewhat obsessed with midi controllers and had been tweaking a live loops set up and for some time just always had that 1 button or command that I didn’t want to have to press. I have had like 5-6 of the more well known midi to daw controllers (notation, Akai) and still use those plenty. But this app magnificently does things that none of those controllers can do. This helped me creatively, technically and now I have a lot more flexibility to do more interesting thing in my sets and continue the exploration. I have never written a review before - this app is a must have if you do anything with MIDI
Not detecting my OSC message on MAX on my laptop despite being on same WiFI network.
I using this app in my studio setup , such a great app, i want to ask developer to add more option i gui editor to make graphics more interesting like using system fonts for design and add png or jpg in interface , usb connection sometimes drops bt network is ok.
Thank you for fixing the long OSC argument bug! This is a huge help. I do have one feature request for the future and that is the ability to send string commands. Thanks for your continued work.
I haven’t been able to get the editor to sync with my iPad. About 60% of the templates that it comes with work. But if your intent is to use the “Live Control” or make your own templates, it didn’t work for me. I even checked all the forums, seems the templates for supporting live 9-10 don’t work. Too bad wanted to use this software... I guess I might have to go back to using “Touchable”. If the Devs would update the Ableton templates and fix the sync issues I will change my review. Wasted too much time I could have spent making music instead of trouble shooting abandoned-ware. Shame has potential.
I discovered TouchOSC a few years ago and it was a great idea with all kind of smart tablets and phones out there. I am mainly a Cubase user and tried to program this for a long time until I finally understood how it works (well, maybe 90%). I was able to make a Cubase template that is close to a hardware based surface control costing $600 and above. My template is on Steinberg’s forum site for you to check it out. Some very high end sample library companies even provide templates to be used with their software in Kontakt like Chris Heins Violins. That shows you the capabilities. Like other users here, I would like to see some visual improvements and expanded manual and some good examples. You really need to have a great imagination of what you want to achieve and the possibilities with TouchOSC but for someone who lacks the imagination they will probably pass this on. It is an essential part of my setup and highly recommend this.
I’d love to see more and more updates to this app. I love it. I use it for just about everything. This is THE GAME CHANGER! I will have everyone i come in contact with using this app! I call it, “The Ultimate Midi Controller”!!!
I’ve been at this TouchOSC for a few days now, created custom layouts with Toggles, Rotaries, Push Buttons , Faders, XY Pads and Multis to use for virtual instrument libraries within Logic Pro X, Kontakt and other plugins. I am getting the hang of it. Though, it seems that, using TouchOSC over a network connection at times chokes up notes on MacBook Pro 2015 with 16 gigs of ram and SSD Drives. Need to do more trouble shooting with TouchOSC & Osculator. I am thinking maybe Osculator is the culprit here. It would be nice if Hexler would make TOSC USB capable as well. Other than that I like the TOSC. As mentioned in other previous reviews, it would be nice to also have more choice for colors and graphics.
Currently crashing on iPad Pro running iOS 13.2. I absolutely love this app and use it in all of our artist production. Super bummed that it is not stable at the moment!
Self-explanatory. Was working fine, updated to iOS 13.2, now the app crashes on launch. Deleted and reinstalled… No help.
Worked great on my iPhone se but having problems with it shutting app on my new iPhone 7. Hopeful that I can resolve the issue because it has become a great creative tool
This application allows me to substitute a large lighting console for a coupe of iPads and has the flexibility for custom building or layouts. Money well spent, this has been quality since first purchased 5 years ago.
The user can interface easily, change buttons and more. Just download the programs from the website and use them along with this tool.
I would love it if this could be updated for iPhoneX, thank you!
Great and versatile app. Could use some haptic feedback when returning values to zero - or hitting any pre-set value. Would allow less squinting to adjust some smaller dials and sliders when a finger is covering the contact point. Also pre-made templates and software translations to non-midi software like FCPX or Premiere would be valued.
Let me say, this is a fantastic piece of software that works reliably and does everything I might ask for - my 5 star review reflects that. My only complaint (and its a pretty big one) is that it’s UGLY. Controls are limited to a single shape with 8(?) colors to choose from. Let us customize an RGB value for the color. More importantly, let us import our own graphical assets to use as buttons - it would take this app to an entirely new level. Thank you for your work!
I've been using this app since it came out. I use it to control many different hacker-y projects. If you make anything that has a network connection, you can probably use this to control it. I use this mainly with plogue bidule, but it also works with pure data, max, and many other great tools. Well done, and thanks for providing this!
Great app but developer refuses to add more color options. Could do some amazing things with this platform if the dev was more responsive and accepting of user feedback.
The android version is free, has better functionality, and works. iOS version is intermittent even at resolving the host
There was a little bit of a learning curve to set this up, but now that it is, I'm blown away by how powerful it is. I use it to control macros in Keyboard maestro with Sibelius, and to send articulation changes to Logic 10.4. If you want to send standard MIDI data over wifi or USB cable, this is your app!!
This is a great app. It has consistently been updated and supported since I started using it a few years ago. Love it!
There’s a commonality of shared benefit in the reviews for touch osc, we all agree it’s a road tested and studio to stage ready application that just works. It’s so important for your gear to be reliable in live situations and this definitely is. Has been for years. It’s also stable and intuitive which is crucial for anything in the digital domain. You can count on it working, running light and doing what you want. That’s invaluable to me.
After downloading the editor and importing the layout for the hog 4 by high end systems. It was easy to set up and after playing with it for a couple hours I figure out how to designed my own layout that was a plot of one of the sets on the show I’m working on. I used buttons that when pushed would trigger a keystroke macro that would add the channel(s) into my command line. Having the control and efficiency that this app has enabled is amazing for how inexpensive it is. It was money well spent!
App is nice. But need better support. I emailed them 2 times with no response. 1 star for support. 5 stars for app
One of the greatest apps ever made! FEEL THE POWAH
This app is amazing. You should definitely have a little networking knowledge and controller mapping basic knowledge to use. But still easy enough for beginners imo. I’m a dj and use it as a basic light controller. You can design your own templates with OSC Editor. Very cool. Saved me a lot of money in the long run. This app can be used for sooooo many things.
Ableton livecontrol straight up doesn't work anymore.
Hey guys, I know this is a long shot and probably a lot of work, but is there any way you guys can create an Apple Watch version of this app? It would not need all the benefits that you get with the iPad or iPhone, but it'd give you the opportunity to have a couple of Buttons and maybe a slider or knob right there in your wrist ready to go! You guys and your app rocks!
Holy jeez, this is amazing. Clearly a lot of hard work and dedication on the developers' part. Very well worth the purchase cost.
I have used midi hardware for a long time, but like most rigs, hardware gets heavy to lug around to gigs. This was the best find I have ever had. Always customizing my templates to fit my style of djing in ableton made this app a no brainer. Love it, simple, straight, customizable like my current templates, made my evolution easier and lighter 😉. Great app, thank you 😊👍
It's an amazing useful tool for the studio and stage. I love how easy it is to program and make work for your needs!
Really powerful app, you can almost do anything with it.
All these people leaving 1 star ratings because they don't understand how to configure the app. SMH. Best customizable OSC app out there!
I've used this app for years and it works great!
I use TouchOSC as a customizable interface that I can integrate into my Max patches and this update just makes it even more flexible. Thanks for an indispensable tool!
I've used TouchOSC for some years now and it's never let me down. I've controlled all kinds of things from music to visual apps to light fixtures, from small projects to large. It's especially useful for highly personalized projects that need to be controlled with osc and or midi.
TouchOSC has been around a while, and a lot of competing apps have come along since. Yet we still use TouchOSC for straight forward and flawless app control throughout our studio. It's got a very quick learning curve, and does pretty much everything you need for streamlined studio and live control. Couldn't live without it.
Been trying to use this for years all the scripts come from different sources and have 100 dif names. If you use ableton just don't waist your energy, it's completely unreliable live anyway
Works well with what I use it with on XP, 7 & 8.1 x64
Good luck getting this garbageware to connect consistently with any router or AP. I've tried several, and this crapware has never let me down on my low expectations. If I could give it less than one star, I would.
never could get it to work,said it supported mix bus,no template,piece of junk,want a refund don’t buy it!
This will turn your iOS device into a legitimate midi controller for apps like Ableton Live. I connect to my laptop through WIFI using the OSCulator app on my desktop, which converts the app into usable MIDI CC messages. Great for impressing the crowd on-stage using WIFI for a wireless midi controller. Believe me, this is a gold mine waiting to be tapped. Get this. I've had this app for years and it's delivered 100% in terms of stability and usability. Cheers to the developers, thanks for a great product.
Great work! Everything worked flawlessly as I followed the instructions. Wonderful interface builder, syncs like a charm. OSCcalculator comes in handy when sending things around to different applications. Wonderful job!
Now crashes every time. Unusable.
The new version is not compatible with iOS version 8. It won't even open anymore. Please consider fixing.
