“I’m a rockstar musician, not a rockstar developer!” Feeling low-key misled that the layouts wouldn’t require a IT degree to design. A waste of money I could spend on other music and MIDI apps and a waste of time that could be used to make, hello, actual music. Pay attention to your rating ratio. Only the super smart spectrumy nerds are happy. Lots of one stars. Dumb it down for us non-rainman types please. Show more

Even after doing everything they have listed I cannot get this product to work!

I cannot conceive of not having TouchOSC. It is completely indispensable to my workflow now. Key switches, automatically naming mixes and stems, transport controls, DAW commands, faders and pan, and on and on. All reconfigurable at the touch of a hat. And the new version takes it light years further. I would rate it 10 out of 10. Or a Nigel Tufnel 11. Show more

my best app. please support joycon.

I was having some issues with connecting to Onyx, so I reached out to support to see if they could help. The level of support I received was unparalleled by ANY company I’ve worked with in the past. They didn’t just tell me why I was doing wrong, they provided an in-depth explanation as well as several possible things I was doing wrong and how I can fix them. Nobody has ever been as helpful and willing to explain as Hexler and I’m incredibly grateful for it! Show more

I’m absolutely blown away by the latest version of TouchOSC. I’ve never seen anything quite like it; there’s nothing else on the market so capable. How capable? I use it to control a flight simulator. No, really. Show more

Pretty fantastic app once you get it set up. I just built a custom layout that is sent to my computer, and then back out via midi usb to my modular synthesizer. Super fun having four XY pads sent to filters and envelopes of my hardware synths. It was a bit confusing to get started however. And as far as syncing with logic pro, it seems like 50% of the time, it just won’t work. Could really use explaining the relationship between OSC and logic controller mappings. The manual is very matter of fact and could really benefit from small tutorials/step but step. OSC mappings really don’t make any sense to me, yet. For my midi hardware setup, I just put the time in comparing the preset layout parameters to my custom layout. Soon enough it all started to make sense (midi). The editor is easier to use on the mac, but easy enough on mobile device. I recommend to anyone looking for a solid alternative/companion to your midi controllers. There’s definitely deep potential with this platform. Take it as far as you’re able/comfortable Show more

Great app. Smooth, beautiful, and overall easy to use. The built in editor is a little difficult to use, but it is functional and I’ve built several custom layouts with it. I’d never built anything with OSC before, but the built in examples made it pretty easy to pick up and learn. When I had a question, the developers responded quickly. Definitely worth the price.

This is an easy recommendation for anyone who performs in a MIDI environment. I play keyboards for live theater, both scripted and improv. This app lets me move quickly during performances, due to the custom control layouts I'm able to create with it. It's an invaluably helpful tool that I'm very thankful to have. And it's getting better all the time, both as I get better at making cool control layouts and as the decks continue to release updates. Their awesome support also extends to how dang good they are at giving thorough responses to support email queries. (Honestly maybe the best I've ever seen on that front.) Show more

I’ve been using touchosc for quite a few years, and it’s super solid, and easy to use. Highly recommend!! The new update is a big step forward, and well worth it. I would pay a lot more for this app. Show more

Wow! What an amazing update to TouchOSC!

This app is the best way to control MIDI from your iPad, iPhone or Android device. Simple and quick when you want it to be and deep and powerful when you want that. Add to that the best tech-support I’ve ever gotten from any company and this app is a no-brainer. Show more

I’ve been using TouchOSC every day for over 10 years now, both in the studio and on major concert tours. I could not live without this app. Well OK, I could live, but it wouldn’t be near as much fun! It does so many crucial things and streamlines my workflow in ways nothing else can. Custom key commands & MIDI controllers, show control, you name it. Easily one of the best peripheral apps for audio/video/music ever made! Show more

The latest version app could use demonstration “how-to” videos on their website. They only have two videos: one is showcasing with a bunch of lights and the other is a DJ using the app. It’s not as easy or straight forward for users to get up and running right away compared to the old mk1 version. UX/UI design is very important and can make or break a company if not a lot of people adopt the product. The manual could use screen captures images of how-to connect the app, setting up, designing a template from scratch, etc. The FB page and group ‘TouchOSC template makers’ have unanswered request for help with users left quite frustrated. Many other developers have great YouTube videos or thorough step-by-step screen capture instructions for their product. Show more

Great app, the panel menus are pretty clunky but eh whatever (It’d be nice to have notes instead of numbers for midi note-on values etc.), and being able to copy and paste messages instead of entire controls would be huuuge (copy/paste parameters from/to different controls) but there’s 2 things that keep it from being truly amazing... 1. Attack and release values for local-data and midi cc’s, as well as the ability to ADD TO and SUBTRACT FROM (not just SET) cc and other values (prefer hermmutt lobby’s beatsurfing app from 2013 for this reason). Ive spent a few hours with the Lua scripts and it’s not worth the effort for time based effects like this (may as well use max for live). 2. The ability for touch to pass through and hit multiple controls at once (not just the on that’s on top). No longer making "capture attention" required was a HUGE improvement (made it possible to make surfable/strummable instrument designs), but it’d be even better if you could hit both controls at once when they overlap.
