Description

Now available as an Audio Unit extension (AUv3) allowing it to act as a powerful MIDI sequencer and clip launcher.
LK is a flexible remote control application for use with music software and hardware, providing a wide range of features and functionality to enhance the production and live performance of electronic music.
LK offers tight integration with Ableton Live using our free UBRIDGE desktop application, providing access and control of Ableton Live projects, with both wired and wireless connection options. LK has extensive MIDI capabilities too, allowing for communication and control of any MIDI compliant software or hardware, even apps running on the same device thanks to virtual MIDI support and AUv3 integration too.
LK is split into six unique modules, each available as a separate in-app purchase, offering great value that you can tailor to your specific needs.
See what’s inside:
MATRIX
- Control almost every aspect on Ableton Live, clips, tracks, devices and much more with MATRIX. You can also sequence MIDI hardware and software with the MATRIX module in MIDI mode. This powerful module has a built-in clip launcher and composer. It allows you to create multiple tracks and scenes and play clips in sync with time.
PADS
- Get the MPC feel on your touchscreen with PADS, featuring an arpeggiator and a chorder. When working in Ableton Live mode it automatically maps drum rack pad names to each pad on the app - never miss a pad again. Use it in MIDI mode to quickly play other synth apps.
CONTROLLER
- Extensive control of 128 parameters with CONTROLLER. Use knobs, faders, buttons and pads to control MIDI hardware, desktop and mobile DAWs - now with the power of AUv3 integration too.
X/Y PAD
- Three dimensional parameter tweaking with X/Y PAD. This module can work with CC or NOTE events. In CC mode, a CC can be assigned per axis. In NOTE mode, X is pitch, Y is velocity and Z is Note ON/ Note OFF.
CHORDER
- Play chords like you have never played before with the CHORDER module. Use this chord generator to build chords and lay them out according to your needs.
KEYBOARD
- Keyboard features a 3-axis expression capabilities. It is fully customisable to scale and keyboard range. It also allows the possibility of mapping any Live or MIDI CC parameters to be controlled by the position you play in each of the keys of the keyboard thus providing additional expression to the performance of each note.
LK is also capable of connecting with USB MIDI interfaces which allows you to interact with external gear.
To connect LK to your host computer you will need to download and install a free software utility called UBRIDGE on your computer. It is available for Windows and OSX and it can be downloaded from Imaginando website.

Great product - some issues

Following the response from the developer which was fast, I will get a Ethernet adaptor and try wired. I took the option to purchase again but it allowed me to get a licence without payment (this took 2 goes so I hope I didn’t get charged)
I have changed my rating to 4* as I really like the product, and am impressed by the fast response. I hope that the wired option sorts the connection issue.
With reliability I’d happily rate this a 5* product.
The grid is the best way I’ve found to control ableton. I’d really like it to reliable but...
It looses connection occasionally.
It also keeps asking for me to pay for things I’ve already purchased.
Both of things destroy the creative flow.
I’d like to use it in a live environment but I don’t feel I can trust it.

Great functionality

Excellent app.
Ok so there are issues with pricing. So what. It amazes me that people seem to like to mess up sales of a good app by posting bad reviews instead of first contacting the developer to discuss things. No developer wants to con a few customers to make a few extra bucks. Of course they want to make money but if the app is good, which this one is, they would rather give the best deal they can and make as many people happy as possible. What good is it to jump on everything you don't like and yell rip off etc. Isn't it better to email the guy and try to get your point across. Reviews are to let other people know if the app is good or not. Let each person decide if the pricing is ok for them. If others see a lousy rating, sales will be affected, which is bad for everyone. So be smart and contact the developer first. How ridiculous is it to take stars off for a bug, unless of course it is there for a long time. People are mean. They get some kind of thrill to give bad reviews instead of being positive to get the app to be fixed. How ridiculous is it to give a bad rating and say you will give 5 stars if a feature you want is added. Email the guy and ask for it instead of messing up the app sales. I suppose power tripping is fun.
Excellent app.

Great app but your payment is a rip off

Really sad that you make us pay each module separately, what is the point I rather stick with TouchOSC or something else due to such bad pricing. Really do something about it or you lose customers. I don’t mind the amount but this is not a game app to put such a silly in app form of pricing, should have given an option to get all the modules your audiences are professionals they will gladly buy a good app and prefer to have a smooth payment rather then feel like there is hidden cost.

puchase bug

I purchased the keyboard and the pad but the app keeps asking me to unlock & tell me & then I receive a message saying I already purchased right after. Quite annoying. Bu the app works great, no latency, nice layout, intuitive UX. If they fix the purchase pop up mistake, this app deserve a 5/5 stars

Perfect Controller

This app is amazing. I bought all the modules and they were all worth it. Setup on windows is a bit hard but the website instructions are great and that is a windows issue as it doesn’t support VirtualMidi out of the box. PLEASE update this and DRC for iPhone XS Max and the notch. The unused screen space would be pretty useful even if it is just to add some extra padding between buttons and UI elements. I also wish you could have a dual keyboard with a higher octave on the top row. The keys end up way too tall on an iPad and it looks weird to me. I love the DRC synth on iOS and VST they make too, both apps have an amazing looking flat minimal interface. I hate when software tries to mimic the look of real hardware. Imaginando’s minimal approach helps me to focus on making music with less UI/UX distraction. The team also has great customer service. At least try their apps out as they all have free trial periods but they are worth every penny especially if you keep and eye out for their sales they often run throughout the year. Both of their apps helped me to start taking music more serious because I liked using them so much I kept coming back to them.

Great app but...

The sale was not clear to me... You actually purchase only one module inside the app. I only realized this after purchasing.
Else this app is just the best out there. It's only missing an arrangement view for live.

Battery usage issues

Crazy battery usage even in the background, without using it. I had to delete it from my phone

Battery usage high under iOS 11

Had no problems until I upgraded to iOS 11. Then on iPad Pro 12, app went to 53% battery usage over 24 hours, without even having been opened.
