here's a short VIDEO

I know how to set up TouchOSC and it does not work
over USB because of iOS restrictions.

I didn't know much about the UI designer, thanks for posting it, I assume this requires the line6 gadget.

What I really hope they add to that UI designer is a session view grid (with clip names) that works over midi and therefore a wired setup. I guess that is very live specific for something that is meant to be generic. I'd buy an ipad for sure then.

Yo can run touchAble with an USB wired connection: you need a jailbroken iPad and mywi app from cydia.

Is this a special functionality integrated in touchAble or
should it work with e.g. TouchOSC, too ?

I remember experimenting with MyWi, but I didn't know what IPs
to listen / send to. I know where to look up the IPs on iPod & PC
when using WiFi, but not with MyWi...
How do you do that ?

Yes, that's something I would like to know too!?

This is how to do it with touchAble - it should work equally for any kind of software that needs a network connection to the computer:

Jailbreak your iPad (on iPad2 you will need to be on 4.3.3 or lower - http://www.jailbreakme.com )
Install MyWi 4.0 and open it
Enable USB Tethering in MyWi 4.0
Connect the iPad to the computer and you will automatically see a new network interface which has an automatically configured IP address and subnetmask.
If you did not change the IP address range within MyWi you will reach your iPad with:
192.168.21.1
and your computer with:
192.168.21.2

For some apps the WiFi module has to be disabled while you are using the usb connection.
Have fun

Thanks kooperativ!
Wanted to see if it works today and had to reinstall
MyWi because I only ran the trial when I played with
it some months ago - MyWi 4 worked on my iPod (I just
did not know how to set up ToucOSC to work over USB),
but since 3 days MyWi 5 is out and the only version available.
And MyWi 5 does not work at all and crashes my iPod all the time.
So I have to sort this out with the developer first...
