I’ve tried everything, followed the online “manual” (such as it is) and TouchOSC from my iPad will not send any midi control to Ableton Live. Installed TouchOSC Bridge on my desktop PC… multiple times, TouchOSC finds TouchOSC Bridge my desktop, connects to it with no issue, configured Ableton Live to correctly to send and receive MIDI using the TouchOSC Bridge but no midi commands from sent from my iPad using TouchOSC register in Ableton Live. I have wasted HOURS fighting with this app, did send in a contact request but as of yet no response. Even at one point installed Protokol, using the OSC protocol was able to see the midi messages being sent but STILL… no midi changes in Ableton. I WANT MY FIVE DOLLARS BACK!!!! Show more

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 Show more

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. Show more

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. Show more

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 Show more

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. Show more

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. Show more

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. Show more

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. Show more

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”!!! Show more

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. Show more

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! Show more

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 Show more

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. Show more

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. Show more
