One of the coolest aspects of being a digital DJ is all the new “toys” we get to play with. Our laptops, our timecode set-ups, our Midi controls, and now even the very smartphones and tablets we use on a daily basis.

Ever since the Lemur Jazzmutant hit the scene, DJs have wished for a more affordable way to have a touchscreen controller in the booth. The gang at Hexler answered the call with TouchOSC, and today I’m going to show you in four easy steps how to hook it up to your existing digital DJ set-up.

Note: I’ve made a video to support this article, and you can find it at the end of the piece.

1. Gather what you need

To use TouchOSC, you’ll need an iOS or Android device and a copy of the app from either platform’s respective app store. Here’s what else you’ll need and why:

• Pure Data – A freeware software program designed to help you wirelessly connect your touch device to your computer
• basic.pd – This is a file that you will run on Pure Data. It’s been created by Hexler to use with TouchOSC
• Midi Connection Software – We have Pure Data and basic.pd to bring the signals of TouchOSC into the computer, but you still need a program to help translate them into a Midi signal that can be used. You have four choices. You can try using an Open Sound Control (OSC) connection, TouchOSC Bridge, the Line 6 Midi Mobilizer, or the CoreMidi framework. For our purposes, we’re going to use TouchOSC Bridge since it’s very easy to set up

2. Determine the IP addresses

Of your tablet…
The original releases of TouchOSC required you hooking up your device to the computer via a cable. While feasible, it’s also a bit cumbersome. Thankfully with more recent releases, things have been set up to run wirelessly. However, with the myriad of wireless devices out there (especially in a club setting), one will need specifics on which device connects to what… namely IP addresses.

When you open TouchOSC on your mobile device, go to the settings section and select “OSC” on the connections. If you see it disabled, enable it. You’ll then see a blank titled “Local IP address”. Jot down this address on a piece of paper. It’s the IP address of your device.

…and of your PC or Mac
On your PC or Mac, you now also need to determine its IP address. If you don’t know how, here are instructions on how to find it in Windows and Mac OS. In the OSC connection section on your mobile app, enter the IP address of your computer into the “Host” blank. I would leave the ports alone unless you happen to do some tricky stuff with your wireless, in which case you should already know what you’re doing at this part.

Enable the “Midi Bridge” connection in the settings as well. If you have TouchOSC Bridge running on your computer, you might see your computer appear in a list here. If not, then enter the IP address of your computer in the “Host” blank. Go back to the main settings window and press “Done” if you’re ready, or select one of the pre-installed control set-ups and then press “Done” to confirm it all.

3. Edit basic.pd to connect

Now we’re set on the mobile end, let’s get things connected on your computer. If you haven’t installed Pure Data, do so. Open it up and then open the basic.pd file within Pure Data. The Pure Data program itself looks complex, but basic.pd doesn’t. Go to “Edit” and select “Edit Mode”. Click on the rectangle that says “Connect 10.10.10.10.9000”. Delete the IP Address and enter in the IP Address of your touch device.

From here, go back to “Edit” and uncheck “Edit Mode”. Then on the basic.pd view, click on that rectangle with “Connect” and your mobile device’s IP address in it. You should see it click like a button this time. Now move a fader or press a button on your mobile device. You should see the Pure Data window (not the basic.pd area) suddenly scroll with loads of lines of numbers being written. If you see this, then you’re connected!

4. Make the Midi connection

If you have not run any of the four choices for Midi Connection, do so now. Be sure to have this running before you open your choice DJ/audio software. I say this because when I ran Traktor first, it didn’t recognise the control when I ran TouchOSC Bridge after. Think of it as hooking up your USB Midi controller before running your program.

At this point, you’re ready to map the controls on your touch device to your program.

Djay Pro 2 Apk

Forget those splitter cables – the latest update to Algoriddim’s djay 2 for Android DJ software was released today, and it lets you use the onboard sound cards of supported DJ controllers, meaning you can finally connect your headphones and speakers straight to your controller for full stereo headphone cueing and master output. /new-garageband-ipad-2.html.

Previously, controllers like the Reloop Beatpad and Pioneer DDJ-WeGO3 worked only as Midi devices, so you still had to run a splitter cable like the Griffin DJ Cable from your Android device’s headphone jack to hook up your speakers and headphones, which has always been an ingenious solution to headphones cueing with just a single stereo audio output, but is hardly ideal. This update solves that.

Android DJing comes of age

It’s about time that Android users get a full mobile DJing experience whenever they use a DJ app with an all-in-one hardware controller. iOS users have been enjoying this for quite some time and are spoiled for choice, both in terms of DJ apps (eg Traktor DJ, djay 2, Cross DJ, etc) as well as compatible DJ controllers (Traktor Kontrol S2 mk2, and both the Pioneer DDJ-WeGO3 and Reloop Beatpad come to mind).

The latest version of Android OS (5.0 Lollipop) makes multi-channel audio output possible, so do note that you’ll have to upgrade your Android device to the latest OS version to make this work. It looks like we’re finally seeing the platform move closer to standing toe-to-toe with iOS in the DJing department…

• djay Free was also released by Algoriddim today, which is a free to download app that retains many of the features of djay 2, such as Spotify integration, onboard effects and controller integration. Find out more at the Algoriddim website.
