The new version of touchAble - which turns the iPad touchscreen into a tactile controller mapped to Live's various views and devices - brings with it a revamped engine and interface. There are also new Chord and Drum sequencing modes, which look as if they've been designed to rival the playability of Ableton's own hardware controller Push.

According to the developer, touchAble 2 introduces:

Complete rebuild of the app
New and faster Engine
New Graphic interface
New server
New Template editor module: build your own controllers pages
New Midi editor/ step sequencer
New Isomorphic keyboard
New Step Sequencer with Chord & Drum modes
New Browser lets access to your library
Complete rebuild of XY pad module
Hundreds of new features, change and improvements

The app will be compatible with all versions of Live 8 and Live 9, and with every generation of iPad.

touchAble 2 will be a free update to users of the current version, which can be bought from the App Store now.

 

This French guy behind this is awesome. How it's seems a lot better than the livecontrol v2 for the Lemur App, which one we 've waited so long for.

Le K rocks !!

 

Its a great app. I will definitely get it. But it will NOT replace PUSH. It just doesn't have the same workflow. It will be useful for controlling some other part so I won't have to switch modes on either device.
