im thinking about getting one;
i was reading this http://bit.ly/bNTIVl earlier and both look amaising =)

i wonder if I could use it to control protools [and in doing that i could get it to control ableton, all my plugins and reason too]; im guessing that it just sends packets to the host app on your mac, and from there it turns it into midi and sends it to your DAW.

have you tried either app ?

Sorry, hair-trigger submit button.

I wondered if you were producing on the ipad. I’ve made plenty of grooves, I just haven’t mustered the energy to keep dumping it from app (by differing methods), to itunes to Live.

Even simpler than a master sequencer would be an audio pool, or a multi-level clipboard. Call it a media pool and photo apps would benefit, too.

I just record the audio and use Ableton to make everything fit.

do you found a way to record in sync or you just do your best? hehe

What we need is an incredible master sequencer mixer that you can open these apps into. Right now I’m just pulling the audio into my desktop DAW (Ableton)… who knows… this is so much fun as is maybe that’s enough.

You guys should check out touchAble, amazing ableton controller app that got released today.

It features Clip-Feedback aswell, if it’s colors, playing positions and names that you’re after :)
I don’t even watch my monitor anymore, the iPad + touchable is all you need really :O

I’m sure I’d enjoy an iPad but I already nominated Novation to supply my ‘birthday present to myself’ and after that it’s time for new monitors. Maybe by the next round of gift-giving, there will be a clip-feedback aware Ableton controller app for iOS and I’ll be sucked into tablet land :)
