TouchOSC (iPad) Layout for Cubase 6

I designed this TouchOSC layout for Cubase 6.5.
This layout controls Cubase parameters in three ways:

1. Through the Generic Remote,
2. Through the Quick Controls, and
3. Through Midi CCs and Notes, which can be recorded to any MIDI channel directly.

To use this layout:

1. Install TouchOSC app on you tablet and install the TouchOSC bridge on your computer.
2. Establish a connection between your iPad and the computer.
3. Download the layout files . (Download Here).
4. Put the .touchosc file on your device.
5. Import the xml files into Cubase. There are two files, one for the quick controls and one for the generic remote.

All files are fully editable. if you see a problem (such as a repeated CC# or a wrong assignment), or need to change something, please edit the related parameters.
A few things such as the Master fader and meters may need to be re-connected.

ਨਸ਼ੇੜੀ ਦਿਲ

ਅੱਖ ਮਿਲ਼ੇ ਤਨ ਵਿੱਚ ਅੱਗ ਲੱਗ ਜਏ
ਇੱਦਾਂ ਦੀ ਹੁਸੀਨ ਕੋਈ ਕੁੜੀ ਲੱਭ ਜਏ
ਚਿਣਗਾਂ ਜਵਾਨੀ ਜਿਹਦੀ ਹੋਵੇ ਛੱਡਦੀ
ਜੱਗ ਨਾਲ਼ੋਂ ਨਿੱਖਰੀ ਪੰਜਾਬ ਵਰਗੀ
ਨਸ਼ਾ ਕੈਸਾ ਲੱਗਿਆ ਨਸ਼ੇੜੀ ਦਿਲ ਨੂੰ
ਲੱਭੇ ਕੋਈ ਘਰ ਦੀ ਸ਼ਰਾਬ ਵਰਗੀ

ਅੱਖਾਂ ਚਾਰ ਕੀਤੇ ਬਿਨਾ ਤੋੜ ਲੱਗਦੀ
ਜ਼ਿੰਦਗੀ ‘ਚ ਵੱਡੀ ਕੋਈ ਥੋੜ ਲੱਗਦੀ
ਪਿਆਰ ਜਿਹਾ ਕੋਈ ਨਾ ਹਕੀਮ ਜੱਗ ਤੇ
ਕੋਈ ਮਰਜ਼ ਨਾ ਜਿਗਰ ਖਰਾਬ ਵਰਗੀ
ਨਸ਼ਾ ਕੈਸਾ ਲੱਗਿਆ ਨਸ਼ੇੜੀ ਦਿਲ ਨੂੰ
ਲੱਭੇ ਕੋਈ ਘਰ ਦੀ ਸ਼ਰਾਬ ਵਰਗੀ

ਡੁੱਲ ਡੁੱਲ ਪੈਂਦਾ ਹੋਵੇ ਰੂਪ ਕੁੜੀ ਦਾ
ਤਨ ਜਿਵੇਂ ਧੂਆਂ ਛੱਡੇ ਧੂਫ ਕੁੜੀ ਦਾ
ਬਾਹਰੋਂ ਕਿਸੇ ਫਿਲਮੀਂ ਰਸਾਲੇ ਵਰਗੀ
ਵਿੱਚੋਂ ਕਿਸੇ ਖੁੱਲੀ ਹੋਈ ਕਿਤਾਬ ਵਰਗੀ
ਨਸ਼ਾ ਕੈਸਾ ਲੱਗਿਆ ਨਸ਼ੇੜੀ ਦਿਲ ਨੂੰ
ਲੱਭੇ ਕੋਈ ਘਰ ਦੀ ਸ਼ਰਾਬ ਵਰਗੀ

ਇਸ਼ਕੋਂ ਅਧੂਰੀ ਜ਼ਿੰਦਗਾਨੀ ਕਾਹਦੀ ਏ
ਕੱਲਿਆਂ ਦੀ ਗੁਜ਼ਰੀ ਜਵਾਨੀ ਕਾਹਦੀ ਏ
ਚਾਰੇ ਪਾਸੇ ਨਿਗ੍ਹਾ ਸੰਗਤਾਰ ਰੱਖਦਾ
ਕਿਤੇ ਮਿਲ਼ ਨਾ ਗੁਆਚ ਜਾਵੇ ਖਾਬ ਵਰਗੀ
ਨਸ਼ਾ ਕੈਸਾ ਲੱਗਿਆ ਨਸ਼ੇੜੀ ਦਿਲ ਨੂੰ
ਲੱਭੇ ਕੋਈ ਸੈਂਖੀਆ ਸ਼ਰਾਬ ਵਰਗੀ
