## Skym Description
Touch control for your Ableton devices. Skym is a MIDI controller app that allows you to control 4 parameters of your Ableton devices at once.

Simply download the app, and install our Ableton script on Mac, and you can connect over USB or Bluetooth to perform expressive sound design. Our free starter Ableton project has some sounds to get you up and running.

Skym sends 4 parameters at once. X, Y, Speed (how fast your touch is moving), and Gate (flips on and off with touch). These parameters automatically map to macros 1, 2, 3, and 4 respectively. Combining these layers of control on synths, samplers, effects, gives you access to instant variability and interest in your sounds.

Note Skym is a controller and not a sound generator, so the app does not make sound on its own. We only support connection and integration with Ableton on Mac.

Mac OS must be 10.11 or later
Ableton must be 11.0.0 or later

## Skym Reviews in United States

### ***** "Very cool with Ableton"
I got the app and the rack presets on the resguided website. Very cool possibilities with effects!
-- djm525, 2022-03-22

### ***** "Incredible tool for sound design and performance"
Absolute love the app only had it for a week or two but already using it regularly. Love the simplicity as well!
-- usbslo1683, 2021-11-30

### ***** "A human approach"
Skym is great. Finally, a simple way to perform automation. The feature I have really been into is the gating. The rhythms that you can create are insane. 

I will be using this all the time.
-- runescape rocks, 2021-10-17

### ***** "Skym is a game changer!!"
This app allows you to essentially turn your iOS device into a macro controlling chaos pad with an amazing X,Y,Z axis system. You can map multiple parameters in your daw and easily control them with the swipe of a finger. 10/10 highly recommend
-- Exerptmusic, 2021-09-30

### ***** "Concept sounds cool but not working in Ableton 11"
The user remote script has not been updated to work in Ableton 11. From what I have read online Ableton 11 has migrated their code base to Python 3 from Python 2 thus requiring an updated script. So if you’re using Ableton 11 just be aware this has not been updated to work as far as I know. Will rerate if/when this gets updated.

EDIT: this was fixed to work with Ableton 11 and is working great!! Sick for sound design and automating parameters on the fly
-- Deroia, 2021-05-20

### ***** "Unleash your full potential"
Exponential creative earnings are awaiting your every second.  This app approaches sound design in a truly one of a kind fashion. Touch activation and organic kinetic expression you’ll find sounds that you would have never dreamed off. Watch a bunch of the videos and just experiment with it to get the hang of it. Truly inspiring software which isn’t something you find often.
-- Coco wit lime, 2021-05-11

### ***** "Super cool app"
This app takes so much confusion out of the way and allows me to just use my ear to decide how I want to sound rather than the knobs and waves of plugins.
-- FelixGoldmund, 2021-05-11

### ***** "real and clean music production software"
if you’re looking to enhance your recordings with good vibes and cutting groovy sounds dig this app
-- donteatshrimpfromthailand, 2021-04-14

### *---- "Not for windows"
The idea is very awesome and sounded like it would be a great addition to my DAW. Unfortunately it wasn't very clear to me that it wasn’t available for windows and I became aware of this after purchasing. Hoping for the addition of windows support soon!
-- spicyween69, 2021-04-06

### ***** "Complete game changer"
Allows me to automate multiple elements at the same time while doing nothing but dragging my finger across my phone. Totally changed my work flow and synth design. Couldn’t recommend more
-- Mo-mo, 2021-02-13
