TouchOSC vs AbleSet Connect

Brand-new app. Brand-new powerful editor. We've listened for the past 10 years and we've re-written the application from the ground up - with speed, features and usability in mind. A GPU-powered, fast and advanced integrated editor is part of TouchOSC on all platforms - create the most complex of control layouts with ease and precision. MIDI, OSC and more... TouchOSC supports sending and receiving any number of MIDI and OSC messages on many connections simultaneously. On top of OSC over UDP & TCP, we support every type of wired & wireless MIDI connection your device can offer, including MIDI over USB. Cross-Network. Synchronized editing. Multiple instances of TouchOSC can be connected on the network for synchronized editing. Use the precision of your desktop's mouse and keyboard for fine-grained, detailed editing - test-drive and preview in real-time on all connected touch-screen devices at the same time. Scripting and local messages. A lightweight and fast scripting engine allows deep access to all aspects of your controller and enables limitless customization and interactivity. For less complex tasks we've added local messages - simply wire up controls to transmit or display values; no need to break out the big (code) guns. Easy. This is only the beginning... We've supported and updated TouchOSC Mk1 for more than 10 years and we're planning to do the same for this new version. We've already got a whole bunch of features cooking that were just not quite ready yet. There is so much more to come... Welcome to the next generation!

AbleSet Connect is the native iOS and iPadOS app for AbleSet. Connect to AbleSet running on your computer over your local network and run the full AbleSet web interface in a clean, full-screen experience built for the stage. The app discovers AbleSet hosts on your Wi‑Fi using Bonjour and opens your session automatically. AbleSet runs edge-to-edge in a dedicated in-app browser. Your settings are remembered across different hosts on the same network, so switching between machines on your LAN does not reset your preferences. Links to other local hosts stay in the app; external links open in Safari when you need them. Your screen stays awake while you are using AbleSet, so the display does not dim mid-show. You can optionally hide your device's status bar when you want a cleaner stage view. AbleSet Connect also exposes native device capabilities to AbleSet: screen brightness control, battery level and charging state. Additionally, connect USB or Bluetooth MIDI controllers to your iPhone or iPad and forward performance data to AbleSet on your Mac over the network. Optionally bridge MIDI to Apple Network MIDI (RTP) for tighter integration with your Mac and other gear on the LAN. Requirements - AbleSet running on a Mac on the same local network (AbleNet enabled, or updated AbleSet with dedicated companion discovery) - iPhone or iPad with iOS 17 or later - Local network access (used to discover AbleSet and, when enabled, network MIDI)
