If you’re on a Mac, TouchOSC its super easy to set up with an iOS device over USB as a MIDI controller. Sorry Windows users, I have nothing for you today.

‎TouchOSC is a modular OSC and MIDI control surface for iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad by hexler. It supports sending and receiving Open Sound Control and MIDI messages over Wi-Fi and CoreMIDI inter-app communication and compatible hardware. The application allows.

Some day I will cover making custom layouts and control surfaces with TouchOSC but for now we’re just using it as a portable MIDI controller.

Over USB you’ll get a low latency MIDI input into your DAW.
While it’s technically possible to do this all over WIFI, I would not recommend it.

TLDR

• Unlock iPad and connect with USB to lightning cable
• Launch Audio MIDI Setup utility on the Mac
• Enable the iPad/iPhone in the Audio page
• Open TouchOSC app on iPad/iPhone
• Enable TouchOSC Bridge and CoreMIDI
• Set Layout to Keys or Beatmachine
• Open REAPER and go to Preferences, Audio, MIDI Devices
• Enable Apple iPad/iphone for Input and control, apply preference change
