WOW Midi controller of pure sexness!!

With respect, it sounds like you have a very closed mind when it comes to innovative technology. You like things to be a certain way and that's that, which is fair enough.

Have you seen the JazzMutant Lemur?



One of my mates sold his grandmother to get one of these, and let me tell you the experience of using it is genuinely taking things to the next level.

It takes some time to create useful interfaces with it, but once you do it opens scary possibilities for realtime control.

These kind of tangible interfaces are just pushing the concept even further, where you can have different shaped blocks which you can actually feel, which change the sound based on their own orientation and positioning relative to other blocks.

There's this, on a similar vible.

... and to think, I could have done a pHD on this kind of stuff!

Kind of regret not doing that now.

Could you please tell me where your mate sold his gran too.
I`ve just checked out the Lemur, and I want to sell my gran as well.

On a search of touch screens and ableton this came up, to use with a seperate graphics tab or touchscreen:-

between 250 and 350 for a graphics tablet and this free software, you can control parameters in live, seemed interesting enough to post anyways..

Interesting idea, but it seems like massive overkill.

The problem with conventional touchscreens, unlike the Lemur, is that they can only register one touch at a time. Imagine a MIDI controller where you could only use one knob at a time!

The Lemur can register multiple touches, so you could - in theory - use all ten of your fingers at once.

Bah! Double post.

Yeah I noticed that after I posted, and had a look on the Lemur website. Looks like there's no cheap alternative to the real thing, so looks like it's loan time, I wonder what I'd get for the cat..

His bank, I think - He took out a personal loan.

I'm not sure if he secured it on his Gran, but since I don't know either way and it's an amusing concept then why the hell not.

It really is a sweet interface, but as I say it takes a bit of programming to really tap it's potential.
