I could see how it would disconnect. The iRig doesn't sit flush with the ipad when connected, so that slight space it leaves in-between is just enough that if pushed inward on one side it could possibly disconnect. That hasn't happened to me yet. The ipad stays fixed in one position on the desk while playing and tweaking synths so there isn't much opportunity to disconnect.

Design flaw, lol....Couldnt you just keep a roll and take a couple pieces of scotch tape everytime you connect your iRig to the iPad? Ghey, but problem solved.

Isnt the iRig like 80 bucks? And it doesnt lock into place like the apple cable? **** lame brained engineers working for a software company rushing their new piece of crap component or doohickey onto the market. Dudes should have stuck with Sampletank, :lol: :fku: :fku: :fku:

04 Controlling RME TotalMixFX with an iPad.



TouchOSC Cubase Totalmix Demo.MOV



Yep, this is what I want, a decent level of control of totalmix with my iPad.

Great thread for info, I bookmarked it for later when I actually do it (in a few weeks time).

Got my iRig Midi for iPad(3).

Got :arrow: Sunrizer synth for ipad via advice from DistortedTechno. $4.99, you can't beat that, GREAT reviews!

It reminds me LARGELY of a Minibrute on iPad. Looks like and has bunches of knobs and faders to mess with. Default loaded with 200+ presets.

I am HAPPY with it so far. I can do alot with this, cheaper than Animoog.

Supposed to have gotten 2 midi cables but I received 2 power cables instead and 1 midi cable. Hopefully after contacting ik multimedia they can exchange 1 power cable for a midi cable and I'll be set for in/out midi.

Sunrizer showed up on my triton with no problems at all. I was able to pitch bend and modulate right from the triton.

Everything else for tweaking is on the ipad screen. Haven't messed with any other midi besides that because I'm down 1 midi cable for now.

Never had an ipad or ipad synths before, this is a first and it's a GOOD first in my eyes.

After I get the midi cable situation straight I'll move on to trying out all midi with Sunrizer and then TOUCH OSC is next up to bat.

I have the older HSDP so I don't have Total Mix. My mixer GUI is still MIDI mappable though, maybe I'll try it with AC-7, Touch OSC and Lemur.

Just want to throw in a general statement with these apps, if they offer an ad hoc wifi arrangement that's the way to go as far as latency as Undertow mentioned. Night and day compared to just connecting to the local router/network.

The OSC protocol is very low latency as MeSoHordey mentioned and if you're on OS X Osculator is worth the $19-$39 suggested donation.

I have the CCK and the Alesis I/O dock. I love the I/O dock generally but it doesn't handle SysEx so my dreams of making a Touch OSC or Lemur template for the 4000 were dashed. I believe the iConnect suffers from no such SysEx limitations.

If you're digging Sunrizer (it is dope), check out Magellan Lamp, well worth the premium price.

WOW!!



Had to pick my jaw up off the floor. Specs on this thing are incredible!

This and Sunrizer would be all I'd need and will fit the bill of new stuff to play with. Thanks for the heads up!

Yeah man Magellan is impressive. Glad you liked what you saw (heard?) Lamp.

Amazingly I've had no polyphony/crackle issues with it on an iPad 1. Might still be time to fashion my own spacer and get the iPad HD in the Alesis though. I'm thinking 2 or 3 comic book backing boards maybe.

Good to hear and glad to spread the word :)

An MPC and an iPad with a few top drawer apps is really becoming like a futuristic sequencer/pad/modules setup.

The way the iTunes store is set up it's too hard to find apps so I go to Synthtopia a lot to see what's out and worthy.

I'll mention one more too, CS Sound. Really needs the iPad HD to run but it's a user friendly C-Sound interface that is bananas for wonked out sound design. The idea is to load in your own loops, so I could see a lot of cats here digging it.

Lemur DOES read like the better program, I don't know why I was so fixated on Touch OSC, maybe because I saw it first and stayed reading up on it for a long while.

I tottally get that I did the same thing, was tottally fixated on touch osc. Lemur is more of a full fledged programming enviorment where touch osc is more just controller design.
