UBRIDGE⁠.

The bridge between your phone and your studio.

A free background utility that announces itself on your local network — like a Wi-Fi printer — so LK and TKFX find your computer and connect to Ableton Live, Traktor, or any MIDI app. No manual IPs. No fiddling. Just music.

[ HOW IT WORKS ]

Ready to use in three simple steps.

Native Instruments Traktor · TKFX

MIDI in⁠, MIDI out.

For TKFX + Traktor, UBRIDGE works as a transparent MIDI bridge. Two-way messages travel between mobile and desktop over a virtual MIDI device.

1

Import the TSI mapping in Traktor

Open Preferences › Controller Manager and import the TSI mapping file. Pick the matching MIDI ports for input and output.

2

Enable virtual MIDI in UBRIDGE

Switch to the TKFX tab and confirm the virtual MIDI device is set to send and receive. Green dot means you're live.

3

Connect TKFX to UBRIDGE

Open TKFX › Connections, pick UBRIDGE, then select the matching MIDI input and output. Time to play.

[ COMPATIBILITY ]

Plays with everything on both sides.

01DEEP INTEGRATION ✓

Ableton Live

Deep integration via remote script

UBRIDGE installs the LK remote script inside Live. Once active, Live and UBRIDGE exchange data directly — clip launch, parameter mapping, real-time sync.

Native Instruments Traktor

Two-way MIDI loop

TKFX messages route through a virtual MIDI port that Traktor reads as input. Traktor's outgoing messages return through UBRIDGE — full bidirectional control of decks and FX.

Any MIDI application

Generic bridging

DAWs, plugins, OS-level MIDI consumers. UBRIDGE looks like a virtual MIDI device on your computer — anything that receives MIDI can be controlled by your phone.
