TouchOSC is a cross-platform application developed by Hexler Heavy Industries that allows users to create and use custom control surfaces for music, lighting, and multimedia systems. Designed for mobile devices and desktop platforms, it supports protocols such as OSC (Open Sound Control), MIDI, and serial communication, enabling real-time interaction with software and hardware.

History
