The easiest operation was photoed.
Although this has the strong side as a MIDI controller, it makes a very good sound also with an application simple substance.
Although the performance using Arpeggiator is main, only few of programming is not sensuous.
However, various usage is done.

Roland Juno 2 iPad controller with Arduino Ethernet demo
Demo of a custom device build around Arduino in order to control the Roland Alpha Juno 2 via Wifi.
The Arduino connects the Juno2 to the Wifi network of the iPad via an Airport router, an Arduino Ethernet shield and a midi shield.
I used Touch OSC to design the controller.
Touch OSC sends OSC messages (e.g /jun/DCO_Range 2.000) which are translated by the Arduino into Midi SysEx messages.
But the Arduino also translates Midi sysex messages from the Juno 2 into OSC messages (sort of loopback) so that when you change the patch on the Juno2, faders automatically move to the right position !
The code and detailled instructions will soon be published on http://4colors.free.fr
The control design mimics Roland PG300, but better !

Beatsurfing – The Organic MIDI Controller Builder – Official Teaser
BEATSURFING – THE ORGANIC MIDI CONTROLLER BUILDER
beatsurfing.net
It allows you to draw a 3-dimensional controller and use it in two different and complementary ways. You can tap it like you would with your regular MPC or any other beatmaking device, but the best and most innovative use you can make of it is definitely by surfing your fingers along routes, colliding with objects, triggering samples or effects. It’s all about movement, and bringing back this intuitive way to make music.
It can control any MIDI-enabled device (Software, Hardware, or even selected iPad apps through Virtual MIDI), features a very intuitive in-app editing system and integrates seemlessly in any existing Studio or Live setup.
Objects Behaviours can be set to link objects together and multiply the available commands on the surface of the iPad.
It’s been developed by Herrmutt Lobby & Yaniv De Ridder.
facebook.com/herrmuttlobby
It’s based on concepts Herrmutt Lobby developed for Hardware MIDI controllers (like the Beatfader and the MIDI scratch devices).
Released by VLEK as VLEKAPP08

Draw your own controller
Work with the Controller you need, not the one you were given. Simply draw it on the screen with lines, polygons, circles and faders. Size, color, orientation and 3-Dimensional location are all yours to choose.

Surf!
Use the full potential of the iPad touchscreen: You can tap on the screen, but you better add the Surfing to your production and performance skills to integrate more of that human feel in your music.

Link any MIDI device
Dj, VJ, Production softwares, Hardware devices, and even selected iPad apps: you can route BEATSURFING to anything that allows for MIDI.

Objects Behaviours
Each object of your controller can be set to control the others. It creates a system of objects that allow you to add much more to a controller than what meets the eye.
>> LEARN MORE: beatsurfing.net/?p=159
Intuitive In-App editing
Forget about separated editing software, lenghty changes and whatnot. You can swap between the EDIT and PLAY modes at the tap of a finger. All your objects even remain playable when they’re be re-arranged!

Music iPad App: Dubstep MS Pro / Korg Kaoss Pad
Music demo of Dubstep MS Pro connected to a Korg Kaoss Pad. I promise this is the last video I do with the Korg Kaoss Pad! I’m at a stage where I’m trying to work out new ways to make music. Along the way I’m experimenting with different ways to connect apps with external devices.
