Please update

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 Now it works primarily on outdated IAA apps.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!

Creative and innovative

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.

Fancy!

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.

Euroracks best Buddy!

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

Mind blowing

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

Crayzee Good...

...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

Takes a bit of getting used to.

I've found this app works well as a midi controller with several synth apps on my iPad. I've had some interesting results using it with Jordantron in particular. It also works well with FL Studio and Ableton Live 9 on my PC, so all in all, I think it's well worth it.

My favorite midi controller

Excellent investment for controlling & playing synths. It works similar to the TC-11, but gives the flexibility to do it with other apps.

Amazingly Cool!

This is an amazingly cool midi-controller. One of those apps that almost justifies an iPad purchase itself. Use TC-DATA in combo with iOS Synths apps such as ANIMOOG, WAVEMAPPER, ALCHEMY, MITOSYNTH and you can control their extra parameters like aftertouch, using a whole host of multitouch gestures around the iPad surface. This allows for musical expression that will leave you in absolutely no doubt...the iPad itself is a legitimate musical instrument. It looks beautiful and allows you to express your musical soul in satisfying and addictive ways. The setup of patches to midi note and CCs may look complicated, but while it has plenty of depth, the help manual covers everything clearly and easily. Enjoy!

Outstanding!

Extremely well thought-out and complete. Brings synth apps to life with it's exciting user interface. Although very comprehensive, TC Data's difficulty is easily scalable. Take as big or as small a bite as you want. Another winner from Bit Shape!

The Most Organic Playing Surface Yet

This is the MIDI playing surface I never knew I was missing until I got it. All the joy and fun of TC-11 with any MIDI sounds I have access to. The presets are fun, and once you get how it all works they're simple to tweak to create exactly the playing experience you want. Definitely read the manual and be ready to experiment. The payoff is a whole new iPad performance experience. You'll never want to go back to a boring old keyboard again.

Control overload

I just had to download this app because TC-11 is a masterpiece for the touchscreen and I cannot begin to imagine the endless hours of effort in creating TC-Data. This will be a classic controller for sure.

Update: this is even better then expected. TC-Data is the MIDI controller you can program like a modular synth and play like an instrument.
