whoa!

also check out http://www.livelab.dk/ it uses your Synaptics touchpad on your laptop as a MIDI controller. VST plugin and standalone. By pressing the buttons of your touch pad you can change midi controllers values like you do Ean with the Vci in Traktor chanching pages.

A wacom all though even more expensive would probably work even better because it's pressure sensitive.

Thats true and lots of people have been using wacoms for midi I believe. Great suggestions,

There's a lot of devices used for custom midi manipulation nintendo DS, wii-mote, kaos pad kp3, graphics tablets, and various joysticks among other things. Most I've seen used for either x/y effects or pseudo scratching. The more I visit this site the more I'm realizing you guys really should add that forum that was previously talked about so stuff like this could be discussed more.

M-JOY- or MI-JOY (who ripped off who?)

Well, it seems that Virtuasonic's MIJOY was published before mJoy.

What about GlovePIE?! Latest version has synaptics support, where you can actually measure how much area a finger is taking up on the pad, similar to pressure. I've actually mailed the ergonomic touchpad guys trying to find out if these are synaptics. If they are, they're perfect for glovePIE and livelab's vst plugin.

Everyone I know who's used a korg kaoss pad has really liked it. I think it's all in the interface. This could be a cheap way to get the same great interface.

now thats DOPE! let us know :-) :-)– p.s. if they can do area support like that then it should recognize if you are putting 2 fingers down- 2 finger dj scroll anyone???

Sorry about the noob question but: What is "X/Y pad" how is the function of that? – thanks

Soy about anonymous post above – here am I

glovepie is great. using it to use a wiimote for traktor.
in a week i am getting my snes advantage teamed up w/ my wiimote & my dm2. all toys maped to midi.

btw. i suport the idea of forums here.
thanx for everything ean

<blockquote cite="#comment-699">Sorry about the noob question but: What is "X/Y pad" how is the function of that? – thanks

the idea is that you can control 2 functions in the software with one surface. as you move your hand to the right- The X Axis controls one function (like FX mix). Then as you also move your hand down the pad- Y controls another function like loop length.

Sorry guys, I thought I posted here yesterday… but I don't see it now, so it must not have gone through.

These touchpads are not synaptics, so they don't work with glovepie or live lab's touchpad2midi vst plugin. If you're running a laptop, but you're not sure what kind of touchpad you have, you probably have a synaptics touchpad on it — go ahead and try the touchpad2midi plugin, if it works you do and if it doesn't… well, you don't, duh!

Yeah, you could probably hack it to do two finger playlist scrolling when it recognizes more surface area than a normal one finger touch. I think the new macbooks have multitouch pads so you could actually detect two fingers. I think it'd be great to use that to say nudge forward and backward with a two finger rotation gesture. Sorry, I don't have a macbook to try this.

By the way, P1554NT mentioned the wii-mote, have you guys seen what Johnny Chung Lee is doing with them?

http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~johnny/projects/wii/

Great stuff! I don't think it's useful in a club because it uses the ir functions… so you can't rely on the clubs lighting not messing it up, but awesome none the less.

Got to love that price. I just got back from watching Moldover's two YouTube videos. Excellent visual description of "Smart Mixer" push-down compression. An inspirational tutorial all round. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L2McDeSKiOU

Sooooo…can I just plug this thing into my mac mini and it will be recognized as a midi controller? Or no? Do I need to use control aid or MAX MSP? Does the software that comes with it provide the protocol to a) make this work as a track pad and b) allow this to be a midi controller?

Does anyone know how something like this product could work in an Ableton Live setup?

Hey Tobami, thanks for the Johny Chung Lee link. That is really great stuff.

hi everybody i use the vmidijoy with a $14 dls game controller like a midi controller and works amaizing whit ableton in pc, but you have to install also midijoke to get a virtual midi port. i have 2 real midi controllers but for some reason you never gonna have all the bottons you need.

Does anyone know how something like this product could work in an Ableton Live setup?

yes. is so easy to use any midi controller in ableton. the mapping sistem is amaizing

Thank’s for the tip.

I am currently looking into running Ableton from an Asus Eee Top (touch screen with sensitivity) where i am going to program an small application that emulates an midi controller. I will then run Ableton on an external screen and use the eee top’s screen as a midi surface :)

Hi, im trying to use a dual ps2 controller via usb, to do a midi interface, but i dont know if i could.

Can anyone help me??

sorry 4 my english

So this touchpad is not synaptics so it won’t work with a couple of plug-ins….any other disadvantages? Especially using it with ableton on a PC?

Anyone know how to get ableton to work with this so that anytime you focus on an XY pad in ableton it auto configures to the pad? IE, not having to set up the XY midi mapping each time you use a different XY pad in ableton…

Hi

your links for Multi -Control and for Junxion are broken !!!
thanks

anyone can tell me if only a U-HID can control Ableton Live or if I have to get a software converter like Junxion to transform HID inputs to MIDI ???
do you know a software converter less expensive (and even less complicated, less fonctions) than Junxion please ??? thank you

[quote comment="20705"]anyone can tell me if only a U-HID can control Ableton Live/quote]

For button presses you can make the u-hid send out keyboard strokes, but for knob/fader data you need to convert the message using a program like Junxion.

Also thank you for pointing out those broken links, i have fixed them :)

[quote comment=""][...] for knob/fader data you need to convert the message using a program like Junxion[/quote]

OK! I see. Controller Mate and MultiControl do the same..? but less expensive. did you compare thses 3 converters?
U-HID has 50 inputs, MultiControl has only 20 ! how increase bthe number of inputs?

?? ????? ??? ? ??? ???????? ??????? ??????? ?? ?????

?????????, ??????? ???????

thanks for pointing out the possibility of converting HID to Midi.

i’m now using my street fighter arcade stick and my xbox360 controller as midi controllers :)

EWould it work to control a kp2?

please reply at fergster97@hotmail.com
