The v1.4.8 update brings a redesigned game controller connection and routing system, making integration smoother for users incorporating hardware like Xbox or PlayStation controllers. It also adds options to log incoming message routing and clear the log when running a document, aiding in debugging and workflow optimization. While not a major feature drop, these tweaks address user feedback for better usability in real-time control scenarios on iOS devices.
TouchOSC is a next-generation modular control surface app for sending and receiving MIDI and OSC messages, allowing users to build custom interfaces for controlling software, hardware, or live performances. It supports multi-touch input on iPhone and iPad, with full MIDI over USB and wireless MIDI capabilities, making it a versatile tool for iPad music production. The app runs as a standalone on iPhone, iPad, and MacOS (universal AUv3 not supported; MacOS is included in the purchase), offering a GPU-powered editor for creating complex layouts with ease.
It is a powerful platform to create any custom control surface you want, from simple editor of your favorite synth, to complex script based interactive multi page interfaces. The scripting engine enables advanced automation without coding expertise, and network syncing allows real-time preview across devices. While the learning curve for building interfaces can be steep, it rewards creativity in mobile setups, bridging traditional controllers with touch-based innovation.
