Bens Toolbox Motion

Read full description

Ben’s Toolbox Motion turns your iPhone into a wireless motion controller for Ben’s Toolbox on Mac. The app sends iPhone motion data over your local network to the macOS app. There, sensor axes, AR positions, and combined movements can be freely mapped to MIDI CC controllers. MIDI output is handled by Ben’s Toolbox on the Mac and can be used directly in Logic Pro. This lets you control modulation, expression, dynamics, filters, pitchbend-like movement, and other MIDI CC parameters intuitively by moving your hand. Depending on your mapping, tilt, up/down movement, left/right movement, and forward/back movement can be used separately or in combination. Features: - Wireless connection to Ben’s Toolbox on macOS - Control via iPhone motion sensors - Optional AR position tracking for spatial movement - Sensor, AR, and combo modes - Freely configurable axes and MIDI CC mapping in the Mac app - Live display of current values - Display of the current articulation set and playing technique - Support for motion-based workflows in Logic Pro Ben’s Toolbox Motion is a companion app. Ben’s Toolbox for macOS is required. The app works locally on your network and does not collect personal data.
