TouchOSC Positive Reviews

Works, But… MIDI IO might be requiredI can’t bust the devs for iOS idiosyncrasies, and the app is, as others have mentioned, almost there. But… I struggled for a couple of afternoons with a 2021 iPad and Windows 11. For whatever reason, usb wired or wireless the app would work, and suddenly stop transmitting. I never got the mirror editing from desktop to work. Which doesn’t matter and the desktop nag screen is a pain. I got fed up, plugged a MIO MIDI interface into the iPad and into the DAW of choice, not a single glitch. So if you’re cussing this app on iPad or phone, or playing a real gig where wireless and BT aren’t options and wired maybe works for you, maybe doesn’t, pick up a cheap used iOS MIDI interface..OldsynthguyVersion: 1.1.9

Great but missing 2 thingsGreat 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..Nerd-alertVersion: 1.0.1

AmazingPretty 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.XDixonVersion: 1.0.9

It’s good!It’s definitely not as rich as Lemur in nearly every regard. But, some data editing is much easier in touchosc. It’s definitely not the sort-of-an app it was back in, say, 2011..JonPaulVersion: 1.2.3

Fully customizable controlThis 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.).ChazabazzVersion: 1.0.8

This is a great app!This app saves me huge amounts of time creating custom user interfaces on iOS devices. You can connect the app on the iOS device to the app on your computer and see/ test your interface in real time while you’re making it. This feature makes it painless to tweak your interface to perfection. It’s very stable and dependable, a must for any software I’d consider using in live production. I highly recommend this app to anyone that needs custom MIDI/ osc interfaces..Integrated VisionsVersion: 1.1.9

Support is unbelievableI 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!.HfhigvfkjffVersion: 1.1.2

The must-have studio companion!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!.25YearLogicVeteranVersion: 1.0.2

Powerful & FlexibleThere’s a lot of freedom in the way you can set up your layouts. If you know Lua, you can add even more functionality and control. On top of this, their support team regularly pushes out updates, implementing user requests where it makes sense. I use TouchOSC every day. My layout is largely geared toward composing, but I use it to create buttons that trigger shortcuts and run macros in many other apps, too..ASCap1023Version: 1.2.7

Great little appGreat 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..MartinM1111Version: 1.0.8

Fantastic tool. Missing a VST/AU plug-in to be perfectI’ve been using mk1 for 10+ years. I’ve purchased mk2 doubtful I will use the LUA editor. The editor is the greatest feature of the tool IMHO. There are so many online ressources to help you learn LUA (I am not a developer). The LUA Editor has helped me built some unique (and impossible to do before) synthetizer templates. I only wish Hexler will bring a VST / AU DAW plug-in soon (a-la ctrlr) and this toll will be perfect..Studio_212Version: 1.2.3

If you can dream it, you can build itIf you dream of building a custom interface to control a piece of software or hardware, this is the platform you can do it on. Mind you it’s going to take some patience but all the tools are there. excellent support as well..JaydoublePVersion: 1.2.7

Great app!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..Garrett2Version: 1.0.6

If it’s good enough for Beardyman, it’s good enough for you.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..CharliefoxtwoVersion: 1.1.2

Works greatThis new Mk2 version is awesome. Lots of power and flexibility under the hood with Lua scripting. App has been stable so far, zero glitches or hiccups. There’s an active user community on the fb for examples and help..J.TilesVersion: 1.1.8

Amazing product!!Love the team and all the utilities, we use it with Unreal Engine for live shows !!.IbrewsVersion: 1.2.7

Problem with UI of control surfacesSome of these are upside down on my iPad which is obviously a big problem and I hope it can be fixed soon.WeztinnVersion: 1.1.8

IndispensableI 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..MJoMusicVersion: 1.1.3

Hexler stepped it up!Wow! What an amazing update to TouchOSC!.Mark O'CummingsVersion: 1.0.5

Best osc appMy best app. please support joycon..Jeongs7Version: 1.1.2

Touch OSC and Hexler are the bestThis 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..Sbmayer99Version: 1.0.3

Fantastic!I was able to connect all my hardware and my pc and Mac. Has more depth than I imagined. Looking at the scripting now..SuldrenVersion: 1.1.8

Very CustomizableNice App! Loving It, but there seems to be a bug where the screen goes blank whenever text is inputted. Restarting seems to fix it though which is quite a pain.DamdopeVersion: 1.0.0

Have to buy mk1 versionEvery time I try to type anything the screen goes blank and I can’t do anything. Have to restart the app every time. Not really useful till that’s fixed and I can’t get this version to connect to touch osc editor either so that workaround doesn’t work..Professional1996Version: 1.0.6

TouchOSC Negative Reviews

Dammit Jim!“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..BluemeaniefaceVersion: 1.1.5

Can not get to functionEven after doing everything they have listed I cannot get this product to work!.RydahridesVersion: 1.1.4

Developers need to provide more support with videos.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..Music Note "D"Version: 1.0.1
