In order to recreate this particular set-up on your machine you will need the following software installed: As you can see it's a complete spider's web of messy hacks involving most components of the OS. The above is a diagram of how the hack works. I am simply posting it here for prosperity and for tinkerers who are interested in how this was achieved.

Touchosc editor key update#

I do not have any intention to maintain or update this code. Needless to say, this implementation is OS X only, but it would definitely be possible on Windows, as well. If anyone can think of any ways to streamline this process, please do let me know. It requires lots of different bits of software to each perform seemingly innocuous tasks, but every singly task is critical to the system working.

Touchosc editor key Patch#

The two streams are then sent into individual tracks in Ableton Live, each with a Max For Live patch which reads the Spotify streams into internal buffers which can then be sped up or slowed down at will, effectively allowing you to beat-match and, theoretically, do a whole DJ with streamed content. This system relies on a virtual machine (Parallels in my hack's case) to play a second Spotify stream. Hacked together at MIDEM Music Hack Day 2014. I think this tool may have a bit more capability possibly, compared to TouchOSC.but I haven't spent any time with it, i just know about it and a lot of people seem to have moved on from Lemur/TouchOSC to using this open source app instead.Allows you to DJ using streamed content.

It runs as a web server on your DAW machine and serves up the touchpad interface to your touchpad of choice. I also want to recommend an open course solution: Open Stage Control, which is open source, runs through a web browser so that you can basically use ANY touch pad with it, including windows, android, iOS or anything you want.or run it on your computer or any other place with a modern browser. The new Canvas widget opens a lot of potential, but it will be some time until motivated people make use of it. The new version is not out that long but I think capable of some very powerful opportunities for this willing to figure it out. The old Version has a beautiful simplicity that in many cases is more then enough to do what I need. TouchOSC is great! Both the old version and the new version for different reasons. ( similar to how you can view MIDI CCs in Unify for ease of reference) You can call up this mapping from the menu in Unify at any time. The control surface settings dialog will open allowing you to enter in the OSC Controller settings.Ī popup appears that displays a map of all Keyboard Commands for Unify and all mapped CCs. In Unify being able to go to Options/Preferences/Control Surfaces, and adding a new control surface. If the user had setup the MSB selection and all of the keyboard commands for Unify on TouchOSC it would allow for a live play ability where you could load your patches with a button press and be able to play a session without ever touching a laptop. This would allow a user to create or modify their own configuration control board for live play and be able to control Unify mostly through TouchOSC. Could have a text file that is accessible from Unify that explains the control surfaces and keypresses available and perhaps has Bank Selection. TouchOSC - What would be nice for Unify to supportĪn OSC configuration, such as some DAWs have.

The configuration software has some quirks, but overall isn't too hard to program.Can have multiple pages of controls to click through so whatever control you need you can have.Want to have buttons that launch shortcuts in your DAW via keyboard commands?.Want an interface that's a digital version of Maschine Jam?.

Can completely customize your Controller interface how you want.

Has out of the box support for many major DAWs, including Reaper.
