Touch osc
I’ve just bought myself the Asus Google nexus 7" 32gb with my Xmas money and downloaded the touch osc app. Can you use it it like a midi fighter with the mappings off here? Where is the best place to go so I k ow how to use this app along with traktor?
Cheers mate
Wow, looks like complicated and involved haha, anyone done this on an android tablet yet?
Nah haven’t tried it yet cos I have an iPad and they have midi apps that just works so easily, but I’ve been meaning to try something on android - the thing that’s putting me off is there are no direct midi apps that are any good and with touchosc you can’t do custom templates on the droid version yet I don’t think.
Can you use the instant gratification mapping with it do you know?
TouchOSC on your Android - can’t do custom templates! The default DJ one is pretty good for basic stuff though.
TouchOSC on iOS - yes custom templates galore
Yeah u can program touchosc to send the same midi messsages as a midifighter.
This guy’s hacked together a custom mapping for the android version of TouchOCS, and it works pretty well . Also has instant grat too like you wanted.
Yeah, i did a search and came across that and it works a treat thanks guys
The Beaubryte mapping works great (hats off), but Android’s lack of proper ad-hoc wifi support is driving me nuts. It’s all fun and games at home (i.e. with proper wifi router), but the 2 times I tried to use it live (i.e. with ad-hoc wifi) have been a complete mess.
Have you tried ad-hoc yet paulmac? The built-in ad-hoc functionality (i.e. true ad-hoc) of both OSX and Windows is supposed to be incompatible with Android, but there are applications that emulate a real wifi hotspot (like Virtual Router and Connectify on Windows, not sure about OSX). It looked like Connectify did the trick, but when using it for a couple of hours TouchOSC somehow kept losing connection with Traktor every couple of minutes, I suppose because of wifi connection problems. What’s worse, Connectify has completely screwed up my Wifi drivers several times , and the evening after installing it I’ve also had my first and only BSOD.
Apparently, ad-hoc isn’t as standardized as it should be, which is why Android doesn’t support it, but it’s a real pain. Connectify should do the trick, but seems to be unstable for me, and Virtual Router doesn’t work without an ethernet cable.
