![]() There is an app for the iPad and Omnisphere btw. Kinda like a preset system of sorts whereas the TouchOSC system with it's templates, can literally be and control anything in whatever way you wish so it's much more flexible. ![]() Both those two are 'prettier' to look at. ![]() You can design your own interfaces for different items like 3rd party pug ins for example so you are not just limited to using it as a remote mixer for Logic such as AC-7 or V-Contro, are. The thing with TouchOSC is that you can use it for all kinds of controllers and not just a dedicated control surface for Logic. and maybe others will jump in with their thoughts too but. Just a quick response as i am working all night in the studio. Word on the street (hyperinterwebbynet) says that Touch OSC is better than AC-7 Core but how about VControl? How important is the iPad speed (iPad1 vs iPad2) when it comes to a Logic controller? Surely the processing of communications is not intensive. In a way it might seem expensive to buy an iPad just to use an App to offer additional/alternative control options for Logic. Any point using that? Somehow I'd rather not rely on internet connectivity. I do have a first generation Airport Extreme with a USB port. So, does that mean I can leave it connected via the 'camera connection kit' and not have to set it up for every session in Logic? The Novation will work best when it's used to action loops/soundz and be a software instrument player in Record mode (in my case). My hope is that there may be some control of Omnisphere because there ain't much via Automap unless I do lots of assigning <- Something I haven't got into yet. My expectation is to extend that further to the iPad via TouchOSC (or similar). Sometimes I'll use the Novation's controls and sometimes the Mac's keyboard or TrackPad and cursor to do the same action. Automap is great so far for some plug-ins but not for others - Having the same row of buttons toggle between Transport and Track Solos is not clever when you want to select a solo and then play/loop. Sometimes it's easier/preferable to use a Menu > File > actionA than a triple key qwerty shortcut. Although having a MIDI controller with physical pads, faders and knobs does offer a tactile benefit compared to a touch screen, Touch OSC allows for the freedom of stepping away from the computer and still being in control.I haven't been too sure about whether TouchOSC would make Novation Automap via the SL hardware encoders etc redundant, but I think it's equivalent to how we use the Mac keyboard inasmuch that we can use both/either to action the same result but find that one method is favoured for one particular action but not another action. These added benefits make TouchOSC an interesting solution as a control surface. TouchOSC Bridge allows for connecting with USB to enhance connection stability compared to WiFi network. TouchOSC offers the ability to customize both the assigned commands and the actual layout of the digital buttons, faders and knobs. MIDI USB controllers offer programmable pads, faders and knobs, with the stability of a wired connection. Industry favorite DAWs (Digital Audio Workstation) Ableton Live, Apple Logic Pro and Native Instruments Reaktor, as well as video mapping platforms Resolume, Modul8, VDMX, V4 and Isodora, are all able to receive commands wirelessly from devices sharing a network. TouchOSC is an app available on iOS and Android devices that enables the wireless control of Open Sound Control (OSC) capable programs.
