Touch screen tablet

Hi

I’m trying to get a tablet working with dwarf. Eventually trying to use touch osc to create digital midi controller.

I’ve got an android 10 tablet connected over Bluetooth but I don’t think midi over Bluetooth is supported yet.

I’ve tried USB connection with various cables including OTG in usb-a \ usb-b to no avail.

Tablet is teclast p20hd and has usb-c port.

Has anyone gotten any tablet (windows\android) connected to usb-b with GUI accessible along with midi working?

As mention above will be only using it as midi board.

Which of those should I use for midi?

Nope - trying to get a different tablet to see if that is supported. May end up going with windows device.

I’ve used it to control a few pedalboards on a Dwarf. If anyone is interested I have put a video on the basics of linking the two here MOD Dwarf TouchOSC - YouTube I have set up a G…
