Xy pad with record/loop and midi out

Hello

I am looking for an app to control a few iOS synths via midi

Is anyone aware of any piece of iOS software running on iphone that contains 2 or 3 XY pad interfaces capable of independently recording/looping xy movement and outputting the data via midi?

    I think you will need two apps working together for that. An iPhone compatible DAW, such as Audio Evolution Mobile for the record part, and a control surface app, such as Midi Designer Pro 2 for the pads. I don’t know of any iPhone app with both.

    Photon, due out soon would work for the recording part, but won’t be iPhone compatible at initial release.

    Maybe Gestrument Pro would work for you?

    +1 for gestrument pro. I mean, not the ideal way but i think a good hack.

    I think Kai Aras is working on adding a XY pad to his KB-1 Midi Keyboard AU

    That is great to hear, thanks! :)

    The XY layout can have either one or two xy pads (per keyboard) with individual modes and midi channels. However, there's no recording (yet).
    Modes can be:
    CC: X/Y axis transmit freely assignable control change
    Note: generates notes where X axis is mapped to pitch and Y to MPE slide
    Wheels: X axis is mapped to modwheel, Y axis is mapped to pitch wheel

    @annahahn what are you up to specifically?

    @ka010 Looks awesome. My only request would be a latch mode or return mode on the xy pads. that way you can do a filter sweep and it will jump back to 0,0 or if you wanted to move parameters and have them stay where you leave them, be able to latch.

    I like that!
