Hi there,

I've been looking into sampler/sequencers like the Octatrack and Electribes to perform progressive/experimental electronic music with lots of sound design with synths, I also like to pitch shift/time stretch drum samples etc.

I've seen Cubasis, Auria and FL studio mobile but Im wondering can you use a MIDI controller (like an MAudio Axiom 25) to control every parameter? (being a ableton user who can simply plugin a midi controller to a laptop and assign the buttons/keys to wherever in the daw is what I'm used to so it got me thinking, why don't i just get an iPad and midi controller? That way at least ill have a larger screen to work on between synths, samples and sequencing instead of working in a crazy workflow like the octatrack, or is this not possible with iPads?

Thank you.
Best

I would say there are some if's, if the parameter you want to control is class compliant cc and if the midi device allows programing said cc, then I don't see why not. I have used the QuNexus to control a few different parameters but the editor allowed it and the app also allowed it.

I think you will have to make sure both items will communicates in this regard. Not to hard to check if you know which ones you will be using.
