Ipad remote djay pro on mac or ipad extension controller

[Santy]

Hi there.
It would be interesting to be able to control the fx from the iPad as an extension, synchronizing both apps on Mac and iPad. This would give us an extra space of tactile control, especially for effects and looper or sample launches.

what do you think?

[Slak_Jaw]

Agreed. Also with iPhone and Apple Watch wirelessly over WiFi or Bluetooth.

@Santy if you simply want to use the iPad touch screen to control the FX and Looper of djay Pro AI on your Mac, check out TouchOSC (TouchOSC | hexler.net).

I used to use TouchOSC on my iPad and iPhone as a MIDI controller for Traktor Pro on my MacBook. Pretty sure this will work with djay on Mac.

Thanks for the recommendation, I know the app. but we must insist with djay to develop a native extension with 0 latency

@Santy you’re welcome. I agree it would be great if Algoriddim created a native remote app, but I suspect their limited resources are focused elsewhere. So, I went ahead and made my own wireless Bluetooth iPhone Remote for controlling djay Pro AI on iPad using TouchOSC.

iPhone Remote for djay on iPad

I just wanted to share my latest custom MIDI Mapping project. Using an App called TouchOSC, I’ve created a wireless Bluetooth remote for my iPhone 11 to control djay Pro AI running on my iPad. I’m pretty sure this will also work between iPhone and Mac, but I got rid of my MacBook so can’t test it. I often play very long sets where I’m the only one DJing, so having the ability to step away from the booth while still having control over the software and music is super helpful. I created the GUI …

I just finished making an iPad Wireless Remote for controling djay Pro AI on Mac.

V2 UPDATE, August 27, 2023: Added Looper, Sampler and Library tabs to top section. I scaled up my iPhone wireless remote and created an iPad version to control djay Pro AI on Mac. Again this uses TouchOSC, but uses TouchOSC Bridge instead of midimittr to transmit wireless MIDI messages. Please refer to the TouchOSC manual for detailed instructions on how to setup and use it: Introduction · TouchOSC | hexler.net In particular, read the section on setting up TouchOSC Bridge: Connections · Touc…

Hi everyone what do u think about this opportunity to have control on your mean device from other device. (Remote control) Like the option in Spotify and camera apps.

You can do it - by TOUCH OSC

Hi @Digital_Jedi,

Thanks for the suggestion.

We’ve passed this feature request along to our engineering team for further review.

It’s definitely an interesting feature!
