    I am again looking to use Absynth 5 and got to a point that I wanted to control two parameters simultaneously. Is this possible to do with a Windows multi-touch monitor? Up to how many fingers can be used at the same time? Are the other programs in Komplete multi-touch ready? Are the knobs and sliders too small? Is anyone currently suing a multi-touch monitor for any Komplete application?

    Let me re-phrase my question.
    In Absynth 5 is it possible to play around with two knobs or sliders at the same time.

    I don't think so.

    I don't think they are multitouch on Mac or Windows, I have tried them using AirDisplay on my iPad and they just use single touch mode. Best way to control more than one param at once is assign them to a controller or build something like a Lemur template for them (I use Logic X smart controls to do this too).

    As soon as I get a multitouch monitor I will try multi-touching the Absynth. Next I will try Absynth in Fl Studio 12 on the Patcher Control Surface which allows you to to make larger finger touchable knobs that control the small knobs located on the VST. Unfortunately Lemur is not a Windows app even though the editor is opened in Windows. That your multi-touch test failed is very disappointing but encouraging to know that you got it working with smart controls..

    Yeah something like Patcher would probably work, it's just the native gui that is not multi touch capable, any multi touch control interface should work though (just as Smart controls do when used in the iPad Logic control app)

    Unfortunately Absynth 5 is not multitouch ready.

    Studio One has the Macro Control which allows you to make the knobs of non-multitouch audio fx so that all the knobs can manipulated at once and thus make it multitouch usable. Wonderful, but unfortunately the Macro Control is limited when working with instruments.

    So I was wondering if there is a VST wrapper or a modular plugin that hosts VST’s and in it there is a method perhaps similar in nature as is found in Studio One that can give Absynth and other VST’s multitouch capability.

    Kymeia, Patcher may have such a capability but sadly it can only be used inside FL Studio. Five years later and seemingly no progress in multitouch has been made? :(
