OSC/PILOT is a bi-directional control surface application for Windows, created as a performance tool for digital artists and musicians.

It’s in the tradition of customizable MIDI controller apps like Lemur and TouchOSC, and lets users create original touchscreen control designs for OSC & MIDI, based on a collection of customizable widgets.

In the video above, producer Joel Zimmerman (deadmau5) demonstrates how you can start from scratch and use OSC/PILOT to create a custom controller design.

“OSC/PILOT has been in development since October 2013,” notes Zimmerman, “and I’ve been field testing and using it in shows since that time. It’s a vital component to our live production, both on stage and front of house.”
