Jan 20, 2024 - iOS touch control with Ableton Live

Using the iPad and iPhone to control an Ableton Live session running a variety of Kontakt instruments from Slate & Ash, Native Instruments, and more. The audio from these instruments is sent back to the iPad and resampled for further processing.

Would love to know what iOS apps are being used on the iPhone and iPad. Beautiful composition!

[@andrewtasselmyer2436]

Thanks! Phone is running a control surface called TC Data to send midi to laptop over Bluetooth. iPad is mostly loopy pro and samplr.

@@andrewtasselmyer2436 wow’ amazing! Thanks for the info! Big ups!

[@lemonberries]

So cool! What a neat setup. Is that TC-Data on the iPhone?

[@andrewtasselmyer2436]

Indeed it is! It’s a little cryptic but really fun.

I love this Andrew. What are you running on the phone here?

[@andrewtasselmyer2436]

Thank you! The phone is running TC-Data, which is a control surface designed for the iOS device’s touch, gesture and motion sensors. Very fun.

[@aquietgarden]

@@andrewtasselmyer2436 Ah, yes. I have that on my phone too, but have never really explored it. You've tempted me to look again with this video.

[@el-bov8034]

Sounds beautiful! But I have no idea how you're achieving this i.e how is it all routed etc. I can understand if you want to keep your workflow a secret. But if not, would you mind sharing? CHeers :)

[@andrewtasselmyer2436]

Thanks! Truthfully it’s a very long process to describe everything. but I’m working on a post about this on my Substack page. I’ll also be opening up 1:1 teaching/advising sessions for deeper detail someday soon.

[@el-bov8034]

It is sending MIDI data to Kontakt instruments in Ableton Live using a program called TC-Data.
