Using the method I described, I managed to use all of this for individual instruments on Beatmaker 2.

I need to get more practice actually, I'm working on having a 'default set' that I can just jam on whenever. I'm considering integrating Sunrizer in along with it.

Using a Zoom H4N as my audio interface.

I'm in the same boat. I sold a launchpad and bought lemur mainly for livecontrol 2. Have barely used it.

For me the ipad is a nice audio sketch pad. Any "controlling" I do is within the ipad.

Hi There,

I'm using the iRig Keys and it's a nice bit of kit. Much better IMO than the other mini keyboards. The action of the keys is less spongy! It also has pichbend and mod wheels.

I have Touchable on a regular sized ipad and find the words are too small for me. If you have perfect vision the mini might be fine, but it is going to be very small.
