## What is TC?

TC-Data is a MIDI and OSC (Open Sound Control) controller that sends messages to other apps and hardware. The app has over 300 multi-touch and device motion controllers and triggers which can be assigned to any MIDI or OSC message output. TC-Data is not a synthesizer, but it is designed to control them, plus any other MIDI or OSC software.

With TC-Data, you create your own interface to send the gestures and touch motions you choose. There are no sliders, knobs, or buttons. TC-Data directly connects your touch movements to the outputs you program.

Create MIDI notes, CC, pitch bend, patch change, and aftertouch messages with totally unique multi-touch controllers. Or send values directly to your program of choice via OSC, where you can build your own project using TC-Data as the front-end.

Features
• MIDI over Bluetooth (Mac)
• Inter-app control via CoreMIDI
• OSC over Wi-Fi (Mac)
• Support for external MIDI interfaces
• MIDI input passthrough
• Virtual MIDI output
• Fully assignable touch controllers
• Gyroscope and accelerometer motion control
• 300+ controllers and triggers
• 14-bit MIDI CC support

TC-Data is based on TC-11, an all-in-one multi-touch synthesizer. TC-Data takes the multi-touch controllers from TC-11 and opens them up to any external software.

### 5/5 — Brilliant Midi Controller

*2026-01-14*

I just purchased this brilliant app after only purchasing TC-11 five days ago, luckily both were on sale, but this takes you into another world of musical wizardry, it records into Cubasis 3 and connects to AUv3 instruments 👌

### 5/5 — Awesome !

*2026-01-14*

Connecting that to Zeeon and ODYSSEi, and commanding both with your fingers will make you feel like the new Jean Michel Jarre. Extremely joyful !!!!!

### 3/5 — AU ?????

*2022-12-14*

Why not???

### 3/5 — Please update

*2022-08-26*

Bought this when it was first released. Loved it. Now it works primarily on outdated IAA apps. Half my AUv3 apps don’t realize it exists. Please update.

Pleeeeaassssse!

### 5/5 — Creative and innovative

*2018-12-17*

Literally your imagination is the limit..visually interesting to watch as a part of a show and also gives you ways to manipulate midi in ways you couldn’t of imagined. Worth every penny but 
Iike in another review said it will take a little time to get used to and understand.

### 5/5 — Fancy!

*2018-11-12*

Look at all the controls! I haven’t had this app all that long but it is quite a bit of fun. I’ve spent more time creating patches than actually playing anything but ya know. Once you learn what things do a lot of possibilities open up. Overall it’s a great touch midi controller with pretty cool presets to start, but the fun and flexibility really opens up when you customize your own patches to suit your needs and playing style.

There are a few things that would make this app even better, the big one being audio bus midi support. Without it, it’s a hassle if you want to record anything into a DAW. Also it would be neat to be able to customize your own color themes because most of them available just aren’t appealing to me. Lastly if there were further options for layout on the multi patches that would be handy.

### 5/5 — Euroracks best Buddy!

*2018-06-16*

If you combine an iPad, Tc Data and the Instruō Aithēr Module you will have the most monstrously powerful Eurorack Controller Ever!

### 5/5 — Mind blowing

*2017-01-12*

So great, very useful, masterpiece controller. Thank you for this creation.

### 4/5 — Crayzee Good...

*2016-04-19*

...connected to iM1 and Sunrizer and it was staggering. TC-Data does things like no other. The control over just about every parameter is ridiculous...even the lights (if you have a light show) can be synced or un-synced. 
Very very very very very brilliant.
Very. And 5* from me is about as often as the Mighty Luton Town winning ANOTHER trophy...unlike Watfud who've never won anything...NEVER...he he he
