“Studiomux is an amazing app that allows you to integrate your iOS music apps seamlessly into your desktop DAW. The audio routing is flexible and low latency. Being able to use hardware controllers to sequence iOS apps is a game changer.”

Audiomux and Midimux allow audio and MIDI data respectively to be transferred between an iOS device and a DAW by creating virtual ports (Audiomux requires Audiobus to work too.)

This might not sound so sexy on paper, but it really unlocks the potential of all those great iOS-based synths and effects processors, effectively allowing them to be used just like plug-ins in your DAW.

Wer ein iPad, Android-Tablet oder Windows 10-Rechner mit Touchscreen besitzt und Live-User ist, muss einen Blick auf diese App werfen. Da machen selbst Besitzer von Push große Augen.

“This app is a must-have for anyone wanting to incorporate their iOS music apps into a desktop workflow. It just works and makes your iPad/iPhone feel like an extension of your DAW.”

ZeroDebug have coded several tools that make using touchscreens as command tools for making music extremely useful. One of their software; touchAble, has been around for a loooong time in tech years: almost a decade. So we can call it venerable. Zerodebug are aware of the creakiness, and have accordingly released a spangling new version, called touchAble Pro, taking the concepts and application of Touchable to a whole new level. They’ve plumbed the depths of Ableton’s source code, and come up with a multi-platform software (for iOS, Android and Windows) that controls a remarkable amount of Ableton Live.

“Studiomux works flawlessly with Ableton 12, didn’t notice any latency, as if you’d control a plugin within an iPad DAW.”
