TC-11 Multi-Touch Synthesizer – Performance Demo
TC-11 is a fully programable multi-touch synthesizer for the iPad. This video demos some of the 64 included presets, and shows the multi-touch performance and device motion control.
TC-11 uses multi-touch control like no other app. The relationships between touches are controllers that drive synthesis. Since TC-11 is fully programable, any touch controller can change any synthesis parameter.
More videos will be uploaded soon! Stay tuned for a full feature tour, editing demo, and tips on programming your own TC-11 patches.

Lemur and NanoStudio
Presented by Gaz Williams and Nick Batt
This new Lemur app allows you to control DJ software, studio production software (DAWs), live electronic music software, stage lighting, and more – this is no everyday keyboard situation. Any software OR hardware that can otherwise be controlled by OSC/MINI is able to be controlled by this Lemur app. For those of you new to the platform, you’ll be able to access a user library of pre-made templates from top artists and unknowns from the Lemur community – artists from around the world are now sharing their own templates, strengthening the platform by the minute!
You’ve only to connect your iPad OR iPhone to your laptop over Wi-fi to work with a cross-platform (Mac OS X or Windows) interface builder to bring your experience to a whole new level, dragging and dropping with ease as you do so. You’re able to control up to 8 computers from one iPad if you wish, Lemur also supporting CoreMIDI allowing you to use such hardware interfaces as the iConnectMIDI or USB MINI interfaces to your heart’s content. Physics in objects are able to be controlled with physics models, allowing you to bounce, oscillate, and rebound across your tracks — objects including, but not limited to: Fader, Multislider, Range, Multiball, Knob, RingArea, Switches, Pads, Custom Button, and text.
SPECIFICATIONS
– Objects
Fader; Multislider, Range; Multiball; Knob; RingArea; Switches; Pads; Custom Button; Container; Breakpoint; Leds; LemurMenu; Monitor; SignalScope; SurfaceLCD; Text
– Physics
Hated physics at school? Now you’ll love it! The behaviour of many Lemur objects can be affected by powerful and easy to use physical models which can make your controller bounce, rebound and oscillate. Make your controller come alive.
– Scripting
There’s absolutely no need to dive into scripting if you don’t want to. But if you’re the type who likes to get their hands dirty then there’s a powerful scripting engine inside Lemur. Harnessing this power will allow you to build extremely dynamic templates.
– Editor
The Lemur editor, is a cross-platform (OS X/Windows) interface builder. It allows you to create new Lemur templates or edit existing ones. The drag & drop interface makes it easy to use. It allows you to create anything from the simplest set of faders to the most complex groovebox with no hassle.
– Connectivity
Simply connect your iPad/iPhone to your laptop over Wi-Fi and make the connection! Lemur also supports CoreMIDI allowing you to use hardware interfaces such as Alesis’ iO Dock or the iConnectMIDI or class-compliant USB MIDI interfaces (with a camera connection kit). You can even control up to 8 computers from one iPad with Lemur!

New Korg WIST tutorial
In this tutorial, we’ll use Korg WIST to synchronize playback on one iPad running BeatMaker 2 and another iPad running Korg iMS20.
You can sync iPads, iPhones and iPod Touch’s seamlessly with apps that support this technology.
See the full list or WIST-enabled apps, plus user guides at: http://www.korguser.net/wist
WIST is a trademark and software of KORG INC.
BeatMaker 2:
APP STORE LINK: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/beatmaker-2/id417020234?mt=8
And for those of you who do not have a clue of what WIST is:
WIST (Wireless Sync-Start Technology) is Korg’s innovative technology which allows for wireless sync-start between two WIST-compatible apps on two iPads and/or iPhones located near each other. You can now sync with your friend’s device to create a dynamic live performance using two compatible apps. The setup process is very simple and easy. Just enable the WIST function on each app to connect to another, and set the Master and the Slave. The two devices will be connected via Bluetooh, so you can play anywhere without 3G or a Wi-Fi network. The initial iPad or iPhone will be treated as the Master for sync-start, sync-stop and tempo. The second device will Slave to the Master settings. You’ll be synchronized and ready to jam!
Lemur iPad app – first attempt at controlling Reason 6
Background data:
Always coveted a Jazzmutant Lemur, but could never justify the cost. So I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to work with the iOS app adaptation by liine! This is my first attempt experimenting with the multiball control and physics model to trigger MIDI notes and generate interesting modulation patterns of Malstrom and Echo devices.
Geo Synthesizer and SampleTank together
“Thanks to the app MidiBridge I was able to control SampleTank via my app Geo Synthesizer on my Ipad. A winning combination indeed!”
Geo Synthesizer is a musical instrument and MIDI controller. A collaboration of Wizdom Music’s Jordan Rudess and Kevin Chartier (MorphWiz, SampleWiz) and Rob Fielding (Mugician), Geo Synthesizer is an incredibly expressive musical instrument specifically created for a multitouch surface.
SampleTank is the first professional quality sound and groove module that puts hundreds of world-class instruments and patterns in your pocket. You can play SampleTank instruments on stage with the iRig MIDI (www.irigmidi.com) interface and a keyboard or pad controller just as you would with a regular sound or synthesizer module, or you can use the built-in tools to create inspiring professional sounding music on the go.
