So far I've just been using TouchOSC and been making custom layouts (I'll upload a video of my layouts tomorrow or so, as well as the PureData and layout files if anyone else has an iPad). TouchOSC has got stuff like buttons, toggles, knobs, faders, fader arrays, X/Y pads, and tons of other stuff. It's somewhat of a bitch to set up, because, at least on Windows, you've got to create a PureData patch that takes the OpenSoundControl data and maps it to MIDI data (one of many ways to do it), but the fact that it's a fully customizable MIDI controller is fucking awesome. You can also use it with Max/MSP but I've only just begun coding that. And on Macs, there's an application called Osculator that makes the entire process of OSC data to MIDI extremely easy. Basically, it can do pretty much everything the Lemur can, plus iPad apps, web browsing, music, videos, etc, so IMO it's far superior.

Anyone who's interested should go here and download the TouchOSC editor to see how cool it is to make a layout. You can put any kind of control you want anywhere, in any color, any size, any proportion.

It's almost completely replaced my MPD, because unlike my MPD24, which has 16 pads, 6 faders, and 8 knobs, my iPad can basically have an unlimited amount. It's even got pages where you can switch to another layout with the tap of a button. The only downside really is not being able to physically touch the knob, fader, or pad, and the fact that its not velocity sensitive.

Just noticed on the YouTube comments that someone asked how much it's gonna cost and mentioned they wouldn't regret paying $200 for it, then the dev sed that it'll be more like 10% of that, which is nice

Have to get some i-collabo's on if your up for it when it drops!

UGgtgghghgjasljckl;asjdfasdkfalkvdsnalksdjv I can't wait.

EDIT: I just finished the video, THIS IS GOING TO CHANGE MY LIFE. I WILL MAKE MUSIC EVERY HOUR OF MY LIFE, BESIDES DURING SLEEP.

i dunno if i'd consider anything i couldn't just play live on because i'd rather use my computer. maybe if they made a renoise or octaMED thing or any other good tracker stuff?

edit: okay nanostudio looks pretty fucking shit hot actually

Yeah, I like Rebirth too, but like you said, it's "fiddly as fuck". Really tough to use. I've got it for my iPad though, and it works amazingly

ps fuck an ipad
