TouchDAW vs TouchOSC vs ???

Post by ciw » Wed Aug 22, 2018 12:13 pm

Which is better, TouchDAW, TouchOSC or something else? I'd like to control channel levels and EQ in ableton on PC from an android phone over wifi, so someone can balance our live set from front of house.

TouchDAW is more like a out-of-the-box template that offers a mixer and some extras for different DAWs.
From what I understand (haven't tested it) it offers more options to connect, but as you wish to connect
via WiFi this is no advantage.
TouchOSC is much more flexible and also very nice to use it on stage.

All available apps (there are some more) will give you more or less direct access to the mixer,
but EQ will be more difficult, because of the many parameters and the fact that all the apps won't
show you a representation of the EQ GUI. Only exception is 'touchable' (iOS only) which will show
you a very nice representation of EQ8.

So it depends on what kind of EQing you want and you will have to build something on your own.
If you only want an EQ8 on the master or EQ3s on the channels, that might be quite easy,
if you want full access to EQ8s on every channel, that might be a lot of work.
