TouchOSC

About this app

Brand-new app. Brand-new powerful editor.

We've listened for the past 10 years and we've re-written the application from the ground up - with speed, features and usability in mind. A GPU-powered, fast and advanced integrated editor is part of TouchOSC on all platforms - create the most complex of control layouts with ease and precision.

MIDI, OSC and more...

TouchOSC supports sending and receiving any number of MIDI and OSC messages on many connections simultaneously. On top of OSC over UDP & TCP, we support every type of wired & wireless MIDI connection your device can offer, including MIDI over USB.

Cross-Network. Synchronized editing.

Multiple instances of TouchOSC can be connected on the network for synchronized editing. Use the precision of your desktop's mouse and keyboard for fine-grained, detailed editing - test-drive and preview in real-time on all connected touch-screen devices at the same time.

Scripting and local messages.

A lightweight and fast scripting engine allows deep access to all aspects of your controller and enables limitless customization and interactivity. For less complex tasks we've added local messages - simply wire up controls to transmit or display values; no need to break out the big (code) guns. Easy.

This is only the beginning...

We've supported and updated TouchOSC Mk1 for more than 10 years and we're planning to do the same for this new version. We've already got a whole bunch of features cooking that were just not quite ready yet. There is so much more to come...

Welcome to the next generation!

Ratings and reviews

Easily customizable once you get how the options work. Works even without WiFi network if you use your Android phone as a hotspot for your laptop. Customizability is endless. However, the mobile editor app must have a gesture to pan the view (my AutoCAD habits, I'd say). Having center zoom only makes it tricky to move stuff around the interface.

1. Editor doesn't work for me - I am not able to add any controllers. 2. I searched for an app to use my Android as a midi controller and wasn't able to find TouchOSC, I found it from a friend who read about it on some forum. You need to add some tags to make it Googleable. 5 stars because I was able to build a preset on Windows, send it to my phone, and use my phone as a midi controller over USB.

Yes, it's only one scriptable osc app on market, after Lemur died. I bought it thrice: mk1, this version, desktop version. I wrote a ton of sequencers using it, it was fun. But Lord is my witness, script editor is abomination. Unusable on android tablet -- small non-resizable editor, wireless keyboard behaves weird (cursor keys don't work). Painful to use on desktop: no search, really? No external editor support? Why? Why?
