About DAWOSC APK

Description
NOTE: DAWOSC is now FREE. You still have to install the DAWOSC Unlock App. Because DAWOSC is now free, no support will be provided.DAWOSC is an Android app that lets you control your DAW (Steinberg Cubase, Cakewalk Sonar and X1/X2, Reaper, Digital Performer, Apple Logic, Pro Tools, Ableton Live!, etc) over WIFI from your phone or tablet. It uses Pure Data to communicate with your DAW. It sends and receives MIDI and OSC data to/from your DAW so the controllers are in sync with your DAW.
You can design your own screen layouts using the free Windows DAWOSC Editor. It's a visual WYSIWYG editor, so it's really easy to create your own layouts. If you're on a Mac, you can run the DAWOSC Editor in a virtual Windows machine or edit the design files manually. The layout files are simple easy-to-read text files. You can create hundreds of layouts and the app can have 20 of these layouts instantly available at any time.
IF YOU GET A LOT OF ERRORS WHEN YOU START THE APP, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE ENTERED THE PROPER IP ADDRESS OF YOUR COMPUTER (NOT YOUR ROUTER IP ADDRESS).
NOTE: If you're having problems, please visit the forum at http://www.markderrico.com/dawsound/. Most problems and bugs can be resolved right away.
<<<< Note that the app will only display the first 7 controllers in your layout. The app will be in trial mode until you purchase the 'DAWOSC Unlock' app (which is now FREE).>>>>

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

3 ★Its an average DAW controller right now. Like ive saod a bit to basic as far as looks go and looks a lot like other controller apps out there. 4 stars when a better GUI is added. 5 stars with plug in control. Id even pay more for those features as long as I don't have to give Apple any of that money ;)
1 ★This is probably great if you like spending ages learning to program and do half the developer's job but I just want something to remotely control a DAW. When you open the app you get told to go to preferences and load a template. When you do tbis it takes you to an android file browser with no hint that you're wasting your time. You have to download a few different programs to your pc and program a template yourself then transfer it to your android device and go through more faff. It doesn't even come with
5 ★First, if you don't know what you're doing with this kind of thing, it will be a little difficult to get used to setting it up and take some patience, mostly because it has SO MANY OPTIONS ! but it's also unlike anything out there. Actually, there's nothing for Android other than this one and so much more custom than other platforms. And that's exactly what makes this a one-of-a-kind, other than it's the only Android osc editor available. It not only works well and the developer is attentive to what's needed (they actually answer emails and have a forum to talk about it and push out fixes fast), it has so much customization for DJ's, composers, musicians... in other words the creatives like us who like to tinker with stuff until doomsday and make it custom and our own. Really impressed and can't wait for more features to mess with.. not that there's not enough to keep you up all night now. Just got to have a little patience and follow the instructions on the website carefully until you get the hang of how to set it up (I had to email a few questions and got immediate answers), then you can get really creative. I just LOVE it.
5 ★This app does a great job.
5 ★I used to use touch osc by hexler but it didn't have custom layouts for android. Then when I was browsing KVR I saw a forum post about this app and I decided to try it out. What do I have to say about it? It is amazing! Easy to use, you make custom layouts, and it's wireless. You install a driver then run a small file and bam! You have saved hundreds of dollars on physical MIDI controllers. Not to mention frequent updates. Don't spend alot of money on korg or novation. You get more controllers CUSTOM MADE for just two dollars as compared to the 60-600 dollars for normal controllers. If you're a digital musician than I highly advise you to buy this product!
5 ★I own most of the OSC/MIDI touch controller packages for Android and this is the only one that I had up and running with my own template within half an hour. I literally sit at my DAW and think "maybe if I had an XY controller for this" and five minutes later I do. They're saved as plain text files so you can make adjustments on your device too. The dev is very responsive and has fixed bugs & added features within hours (!). No Apple Bonjour, MAX or rtpMIDI required either, just puredata. Awesome job.
4 ★Took me a while to figure it out... And now I appreciate its flexibility. Haven't used it for real work yet, but its a great across the room transport mechanism.
1 ★Nothing but exceptions. Pretty much a waste of time.
1 ★I really gave it a good shot in trying to make this app work. After spending two days following the DAWOSC website instructions, downloading multiple files, deciphering the Editors' means of making a template, then emailing myself the template file as an attachment and saving it to the SD card on my tablet ... nothing in this app worked. I'm a Protools, Ableton, and Reaper user and never had any issue with Apple daw apps. I've been an Android user for over a year and have yet to find anything in their app store that works let alone useful for serious music production.
1 ★Not free. Requires an add-on purchase to unlock all functions.
1 ★Thx
5 ★Nice
