Move over Lemur…hello TouchOSC

Saturday, June 20th, 2009

Just a heads up to those of you with iPhones and that like to dabble in production or live PA…and I know I’m probably a bit late to the punch on this one, but I just found out about TouchOSC a couple of days ago and was floored by the functionality on this app. $5 gets you a customizable Lemur-like interface that can be converted to give MIDI signals in combination with OSCulator on the Mac. Finally, an X-Y pad controller! woot

Super handy stuff when you’re mobile and don’t want to tote around a bunch of hardware controllers, plus just damn useful in the studio. The only downside is there is currently no free OSC to MIDI converter available on the Mac, so you’ll have to purchase a license of OSCulator for $20…which is also what you need to use for WiiMote action, so it can serve double duty I guess.

Anyway, its one of the coolest apps available for the iPhone if you’re into production and it’s not just another gimmick like so many other music apps. Check it out.
