you could always buy teleport, use it for any app, and FULLY control protools. only $25. $150 for something like this is not good at all. the app is just simply over priced, sorry.
 
For mastering it could be useful to be 15ft from your speakers and still tweak the mix but that's about it.

If this was $10 then maybe a few thousand people might buy it for the heck of it...
 
Tranzport works fine for me for about the same street price.

Plus, you have to get your audio rig onto a network for it to work (yes?). My Mac Pro/Protools HD Accel doesn't go near a network. Especially when working with high profile clients.

$20 or less, and I'd get one for my home rig though:D
 
This is very expensive really, all thing taken into account. For me, it's all about hardware controls, and being able to assign different controls to different functions.that much for transport controls and some scrub and marker functions? I woud rather spend another fifty dollars and get a touch sensitive motorized fader with assignable buttons...

That you can eventually sell...
 
I would have made a private network for this with my music machine, but I would not go for this app unless it was 1/10th the cost. Not worth it to me fo a software bridge.
 
Jeebus, $150?? It's rare that I would even really need something like this over a hardware controller. Plus, the iPhone is pretty small for a controller anyway.

If the full version were like, $30 I might get it to mess around with. Wish they'd support Ableton...
 
iTouchMidi

hello

i noticed nobody commented about iTM yet so i had to chime in

iTouchMidi is a suite of midi apps that convert iPhone or iPod touch into new gen midi controllers
As it operates with standard midi it is compatible with all midi enabled daws or vj software
A networked mac running a small free osx 10.5 midiserver app is required (10.4 on the works, win planned for the future)

unfortunatelly apple seems to be blocking our already approved iTouchMidi apps, they could be on the store for one week at least...

beta testers have been using them for about 3 weeks now with amazing response, some available on a +3500 views thread on ableton live forum
http://www.ableton.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=95117&sid=590fe624e5fa0273c5934133a25200b0

our apps and our issues getting them to the sore have also been featured on www.createdigitalmusic.com

our current app store approved apps:

iTM MidiLab: the showroom app featuring light versions of iTM keys, iTM Matrix and iTM XYPad

iTM Keys: midi keyboard, 10 octaves, pitch bend, velocity, aftertouch
iTM XYPad: trackpad for cc control of parameters
iTM Matrix: button matrix for sample or ableton live clip triggering with feedback

estimated app store price for app: 10 $
iTM MidiLab will always be free

all these apps are already available on a private release offer we are starting

these early adopters will be entitled to all our present and future iTM apps, including faster updates, product previews, custom icons and a limited edition iTM shirt or hood

also included are the beta versions of our upcoming apps:

iTM MCU: Mackie control emulator
iTM Tilt: accelerometer control of cc parameters

ps: sorry for the cheesy advertising but we need to do anything against the blackout we are getting from...
 
The idea is phenomenal. Multi-touch display controlling the 2 standard DAWs for music engineers.
Problem: how long is the time lag between me touching the faders on the phone and the actual faders moving on the screen? The program is pretty much useless for a professional use if this lags more than a millisecond.

I don't see this getting further than the "I am rich" diamond (until the faders will respond in "real time" with the iPhone, which I doubt is gonna happen through a wi-fi connection).
I'm not gonna spend more than $2 only to know that I can move my faders from far away.

I'd definitely spend more than $1500 to move more faders in "real time" from a multi-touch screen.
 
Not sure how useful this will realistically be, especially at first, but wow. So many people have workstations with playback controls on etc. that I always find a waste (what's the problem with using your mouse?) but using an iPhone for this would be seriously good. And using it to control plugin parameters etc? The iPhone could almost be an instrument at a gig!

I love the sound of this.

Edit: Also, thanks for that Nonnus3G, looks goood. XYPad especially...

ALSO, I do agree, $150 is TOO much.
