About:
TouchOSC is a modular OSC and MIDI control surface for iOS, Android, and desktop. It allows users to design custom interfaces to wirelessly control audio software and hardware. Its primary value is providing a flexible, touch-based remote control for digital audio workstations and live performance setups.
Key Features:
  • Cross-platform support (iOS, Android, macOS, Windows)
  • Fully customizable interface editor
  • Wireless control via Wi-Fi or USB
  • Supports both OSC and MIDI protocols
Use Cases:
  • Remote mixing and transport control for DAWs like Ableton Live or Logic Pro
  • Live performance control of synthesizers and effects parameters
Alternatives:
  • Lemur – Similar advanced control surface capabilities, but generally considered more complex and historically more expensive.
  • OSCulator – Focuses on mapping OSC/MIDI inputs to other devices, rather than designing full control interfaces.
