Has multiple input options, "pads" like launchpad, a hexagonal grid (my fav), and a "piano". You can trigger, add/delete and record Clips. You can browse, preview and load instruments, effects and presets directly on the app. Yeco is nice, it works like a poor man's Push.

If you use an APC or any other grid controller, I would highly recommend checking out the NativeKontrol software scripts. Note: I am also using the excellent APC control software from NativeKontrol to add tons of additional features to the APC 40. It actually takes me away from the computer screens and mouse for long periods of time and feels much more integrated with my hardware midi gear when im using it. This custom APC controller with the pair of iPads is the best experience I have ever had interfacing with a computer to write music. On the previous version they were not reliable and would lose sync over wifi. I am connected directly via USB with both IPads and they never loose sync. The first versions of touchable did not work very well for me, but the new touchable 3 works flawlessly. On the iPad screens in the photo is my custom controller for the Arturia Buchula plugin. When brought forward, it's great for working on individual sequences with the touchscreen or using it to control the parameters of the VST that i am currently playing. At the back, I use it mostly as a visual feedback and use the APCs for the physical control. If I set touchable to show 8 rows verticle then it lines up perfectly with the tops of the 8 grid rows on the APCs.

In the back position I usually just use it as a screen that shows levels on the bottom half and the grid the top. They rest on a shelf that can move from a front position ( photo ) to a back position that rests directly behind my frankensteined APC controllers. (I got a great deal on eBay, $40 delivered for the pair.). I'm using a pair of first generation iPads with Touchable for additional control and visual feedback from ableton. I'm only just dipping my toes in the software world. Does anyone else work this way? I've also read that Bitwig has good touchscreen support but I really don't know anything about the program. Then once I've got stuff recorded I'll dive in with the mouse and keyboard for edits and all that. My ideal setup would be a computer and large monitor (so not necessarily a laptop) that has a touchscreen I can use to arm and record tracks and tweak plugins simple stuff during a jam. I've done a little research and found the program Yeco that works with Ableton and was wondering if anyone had any experience with that. I don't know if anyone else is like this, but it totally breaks my concentration going from hardware gear to a mouse and keyboard, like it uses different parts of my brain or something.Īnyway, it got me thinking about touchscreens. The only thing really holding me back is I hate using the keyboard and mouse. Hey everyone, at the moment I use Ableton basically as a tape machine (when I use it at all) but I really want to move all my recording and effects and stuff in the box.
