You mean Ad-Hoc mode. Yeah in theory you can. I havent been able to get it to work. But in the next update you will be able to midi by cable hook up

You can set it up as adhoc network, it's even recommended for best latency.
I've been using touch osc for a bit now, it's a lot of fun but nit exactly plug and play....can't wait for the software update to bring native midi support.

Ad Hoc is the easiest kind of network to set up, and everyone has decent guides on how to make it work. Not a problem.

chrisw, you have a firewall or something keeping you locked out?
