GbTouch 3 functions as a remote controller for the Apple GarageBand application program on the Mac.

New Features & Benefits

gbTouch 3 includes new features to know and control where you're at in your composition. The dynamically adjusting "LCD" display shows user selectable choice of playhead location or project information, including song tempo. Playhead position and tempo can be easily changed to specific numeric values. On the Track Details screen, individual track volume and pan are now controlled with faders, and their values are displayed. Graphics have been enhanced and the increased use of icons makes gbTouch more language independent.
