If Touchable Pro can control Ableton Live via virtual midi ports on the same Windows Surface tablet that’s interesting. I’ve just sent a mail Zerodebug to be sure.
Is Touchable Pro stable on iOS?
@Carnbot do you still have some crash issues when dragging samples from explorer?
here's the windows version https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/p/touchable-pro/9p41l3h6m11k?activetab=pivot:overviewtab
Yeah still have that, but it's easier to browse the library via the computer anyway so it's not a major thing, hope it'll be fixed though.
Yeah, I'm not saying any problem shouldn't be fixed eventually but the app is amazing and I've never had a problem with crashing. I would personally never use the file function in the app anyway. Desktop all the way for that stuff.
The feature could have big interest on Surface tablets to do most things with Touchable Pro as Ableton Live is not touch friendly, to have a truly mobile Live setup. This is why I asked for some feedback, as I don’t have any Windows tablet under my fingers to test it.
I've been looking into the android version since I recently found one of my android tablets and one of the things to keep in mind is that you can only connect with a wire through the IOS version. So if you have to deal with any wireless latency issues you wont have a choice to connect via a wire if you use other tablets. Just an FYI.
Unfortunately TouchAble Pro for Windows doesn’t support virtual midi ports. The only way to connect TouchAble Pro to Ableton Live on the Surface Pro is by using WiFi and the Touchable server which is very disappointing.
I purchased Touchable Pro for my Surface Pro but the server and WiFi connection is buggy on Windows because I have to reinstall the server every time I reboot Windows 10.
Thanks for that info!!
Touchable Mini is working great on iPhone, too bad Pro version seems to still have some issues.
Is there any alternative to control Live with a touch optimized App controller on the same Windows device?
If you used the search function on this forum then you would see that I recently made a post about the Surface Pro and the touch based apps to use with Ableton Live. There is a alternative to control Ableton on Surface Pro and that app is called Yeco. It isn’t has fully featured as Touchable Pro but the good thing is that it supports virtual midi ports.
Thanks. Yeco seems really great. You still use Touchable Pro on the same device via WiFi? Is it stable? Also, you seem to have some issues with your Surface and Asio4All? Works really well with my Thinkpad on heavy Ableton projects at 128/256 buffers and even 64 on smaller ones. How do you compare your experience between Surface and laptop from mobility perspective and do you use an external audio interface? I use only mine for audio recordings and internal soundcard for production, if Asio4All don’t works well with Surface that can be an issue for compacity/immediacy.
What do you mean by 'support Virtual midi ports'?
We do not use midi to communicate - only osc via tcp / ip sockets.
So if you run the Server, Ableton and touchAble on the same Surface or Windows machine (which should work just fine!) it will just use the loopback adapter instead of sending out via WiFi.
It should be possible to simply start it via the Start-Menu - does that not work for you?
@Carnbot
we did a pretty big update to the App & Servers today and i am pretty confident we finally fixed this issue.
Could you give it a try?
USB connection for Android devices is on our todo list btw
Cheers!
Hi Chris
Thanks for the updates, unfortunately still crashes on my 12.9 ipad. Let me know if you want a crash log.
Damnit - and also: Yes please! could you send it over to [email protected] ?
Also: Which samples did you drag to what view? Any chance you could make a quick screencast?
thanks!!
@cblomert What I mean is that to control Ableton with TouchAble Pro on Surface Pro (even though they are both installed on the same device) I still need to rely on a working WiFi hotspot. If I don’t have a running WiFi hotspot then there is no way to control it. There is another app called Yeco that uses virtual midi ports like LoopBe which means I don’t have to rely on a WiFi hotspot to control Ableton.
Are you saying I will have to install a loop back adapter for Windows 10 so I don’t have to rely on a running WiFi hotspot? Anyway, I am enjoying the update and glad that the stuck keys on the virtual keyboard got fixed.
I find Touchable Pro interesting, but for what functions will I still have to grab the mouse and open the laptop screen?
How can I fine-adjust start and end, edit warp markers and automation in audio clips for example?
Can't find the answers in the manual.
I’ve just bought the thing, and for automations you will not be able to copy paste sections. You can record them with XY pads or draw them but that lacks precision. You can adjust start and end but I haven’t found reverse button. You can change pitch and semitones however. I haven’t found warp markers edition. And of course all VST’s will not have their GUI, but standard controls. Explorer works nicely, you can now preview samples or select devices presets. And also, there is no arrangement view, even if you can record to timeline. I use it for the moment more as a mouse complement, or as a live/mixer tool. It’s super nice for that, you can for example move one or two faders, keep your fingers on screen, switch to session view and trigger clips and still move your faders.
I also use Studiomux for midi, to control VST via iFretless bass, Geoshred or Rozeta, but not for audio as it’s not reliable on my setup. I use UCA222 with direct monitoring for that. Already starts to be a killer workflow with all those tools, just need an iCA interface now, that will be even better!!
Merci!
This really helps. Indeed it's certainly a better idea to see it as a complement rather than a full-fledged mouse+keyboard replacement.
I have to think about it. For now, i might stay with the KORG Nanokontrol for the Live Mixer and BeatStep for the most important knobs.
My experience with the Studiomux bundle and developer support now makes me a bit hesitant to "instabuy", although from the iTunes description, it looks good
I've just bought the Windows version, testing on my laptop and haven't managed to get it working yet. Scratching my head why it can't see the server... have connected to WiFi and have the script installed and enabled.
Might try an older server version than current one.
I own 2 touch enabled windows machines one a laptop Lenovo Flex2 14 the other a Surface Pro 3 i5. With the Windows version of Touchable Pro is it possible to control Ableton Live10 Standard on One via StageLight Pro on the other via WiFi ?
Or is the windows version just designed to control Ableton Live on the main machine?
@Carnbot There are quite a few people on the Zerodebug forums having issues with the server and Mac operating system aswell as problems with crashes sounds like the current desktop version is half baked.
Yeah I can't get it started at all, thought it might be my security software Bitdefender blocking it, but can't see how as been trying everything.
Ok, just tried on my desktop and it's working well, so must be something not connecting properly on my laptop.
It's great on a 23inch touch screen
Still seem to have the same crash when I drag a file from the library though but that's all the issues so far.
I haven’t got this library crash on iPhone 7 Plus/Lenovo Live 10 laptop configuration.
There is some cool stuff here, with automation bouncing and recording.
I have got it working, of a sort, Ad-hoc, Live 9 on my Win8 machine, but I can’t get the pads/keys to send midi, connection via network session using other apps works fine. Had several crashes and freezes. I can rename clips, but not tracks. Feels like it is still in beta.
Just out of interest there is a guy called Tom Boksen making Ableton VST racks for all the big synths and effects that Touchable Pro doesn’t cover yet that look pretty cool.
Some are free or for a small donation.

Very interesting, thanks for that.
This is definitely making much more sense as a studio controller for me on the Windows version. It's nice to have the ipad option too of course, but I'm finding this will get more use as a big screen touch controller, and even better when using both together. I find that even the 12.9 ipad is too small on it's own when in the context of multiple big screen monitors and is easy to ignore it in favour of the larger screens. When mobile with a laptop though the ipad version is clearly useful.
Still have a few bugs with it but hopeful these will get ironed out in time.
Is anyone running Touchable Pro on an Android touch device? which one is good?
