Simple, elegant, intuitive, and clean interface that is enjoyable and accessible to use for the main functions without overwhelm and clutter and cost. For me, more usable and enjoyable than the other options. Easy setup too and Great value…and from a generous and cool developer…can’t wait to see how it develops and evolves in both function and form. Thank you and keep up the great work!
Best Ableton Live Controller Application!!

The esthetic, the way it operates, it all matches Ableton so well! For now this is all I use as a control surface and even recording MIDI for Live, as it does enough for me personally. Highly recommend everyone, amateur or professional, to use this in their arsenal!
Feels like a native app!

Tap works so well with Ableton it feels like it was made as an official app. The design language matches Ableton so it’s easy to get started quickly compared to other apps.I had a question and the owner replied to me In less than a day, which I think is amazing.I will update if I find any issues but this is a 5 star app for me!
Won’t connect to Ableton 12 Live

Followed instructions to download the zip and put it in remote scripts file, but app won’t connect via usb on my iPhone or iPad. The interface also doesn’t look optimized for the newest iPad Pro. The UI goes into the status bar making it hard to tap. Really wish this worked, it would be a solid app I’d definitely pay for.
Developer Response
Please contact us via email for support. You most likely did not unzip the midi remote script. I would also appreciate a screenshot for the UI problems you experienced! Thanks!
