Can Livkontrol or TouchAble run without wi-fi network?

[Kristijonas]

These apps needs wi-fi to communicate. Is it possible to use them in places without any wi-fi router?

What OS?

I had the problem connecting iPhone to Windows ad hoc ever since I got my iPhone.

Last week I finally got it going on Win 8.

I followed this: http://www.redmondpie.com/how-to-set-up ... windows-8/

Should work on other Windows too. Be sure to run the command prompt AS ADMINISTRATOR (right clicking command and opening it as admin).

TouchAble can be connected via USB cable if your device is Jailborken and if you buy Mywi , a third app available on Cydia store.

I have OS X here. Thank you, Le k, I'll keep it in mind.

?? Really? Is there no way of getting touchable to connect via USB normally? It's would be proper next gen haha!

Please make touchable 2 USB connectable! Pretty please!

Some of them is posible to use via camerkit>USB or a MIDI iPad interface.

Beg Apple for that, we can't break their limitation : we use network and not midi to communicate with Live, APPLE DOESNT ALLOW USING NETWORK THROUGH USB CABLE

[Captain Johnson]

USB cable hooked up to laptop away you go! Get with it apple

So I have to get my iPad jailboken to do this!? Hmmmmm well it's the only reason I have one!

Maybe a stupid question but can you run touchable and lemur at the same time on the same ipad?? I done it with griid and lemur but it was pretty unstable, liine have just released an update which allows run in backround so it should work right?? thinking of getting touchable 2 when it comes out and would like to run livekontrol alongside it, cheers

Yes, it is possible with Lemur and LiveControl 2. They work with hardware cables such as iConnect MIDI, iRig MIDI II, or even the Camera Connection Kit (CCK) and any regular Core Compliant USB interface. No jailbreaking or special procedure necessary, this is standard iOS functions.

Of course, Lemur and LiveControl 2 also support Wi-Fi if you want to control Ableton Live from a distance. But since many professional musicians require no-nonsense hardware cable solutions on stage, we made sure that you don't need Wi-Fi to use Lemur and LiveControl 2. Hardware connections give you the lowest latency possible and the most reliable performance.

Absolutely! Lemur plays nice with other apps. Lemur has its own MIDI driver over Wi-Fi (Lemur Daemon) which gives you 8 ports, that's 7 more than the standard Network MIDI from Apple. If you prefer hardware connections, see my reply just above about that. Lemur can run in the background so your connections are uninterrupted while you play around in another app.

Thank you, guys. I'm looking forward to get new next generation iPad (or mini) this fall.

You don't need a router to have a wifi network. If you have a Mac you create a new network in the airport menu and then you connect to this with the IOS unit. I'm sure Windows can create ad-hoc networks too.

Bit of a bump here but LK now does Usb connection on both iOS and Android devices.

My experience with LK has not been especially stellar. Used to sell the products as Livkontrol, which was buggy as sh*t and never worked for me. Now renbranded and it still sounds like its buggy as hell, although the interface and functionality is improved. I'm not keen on paying for a product while its essentially a ongoing beta.

Highly reccomend the Lemur/ Pull / Touchable 3 combo. Extra points for having 2 iPads. Even more points if you add more touchscreens as well as bio-hacking a couple of cyborg-arms onto your frame to boot. Can attest to the stability & improvements in workflow with the above mentioned. Mature products and rock solid.
