Ideas for your ideal Live controller

[Angstrom]

usership is divided into three primary segments:

DJ/remixer, taking existing material and modifying it.

Electronic musician/composer, writing new music and designing new sounds.

Theorist/educator, establishing new models for understanding music.

Recording engineer/sampler, capturing live performances or found sounds

you forgot to add, 'ones who cant count to 3



just having a dig

note the crossfader is in the right place!! (shame on you Vestax!)

I think they did that so it's in the same place that it's at in Session view.

good observation McBoob!

my thoughts are that in more ways than they can imagine the Remote SL25 is the ideal controller except Automap is half-baked.

I wish using automap was more akin to driving a groovebox..

one day it will be, and i will have a full head of grey hairs, but it will be oh so sweet!

based on the wiring board I just ordered this morning
I use processing environement since a year
if you need informations, just ask!

[longjohns]

hehe I recognize those!!

for those interested in Wiring board as the brain of a controller, I began that:

Many of us are really into the LED button grid idea and want MIDI controllers that do that (which are cheaper and more readily available than the Monome).

I wonder to what extend a regular computer keyboard can be used for this.

I mean if you think about it... it's a grid of buttons and costs 20 bucks.

Max can capture keyboard commands so you could even possibly use a keyboard with LEDs and try to hack up something for what clip is playing and not have to spend a shit ton of money? hrm.

This is pretty neat: http://luxiium.com/en/product_01.php

you're right.
But I'm not sure it will cost only 20..
for instance, my planned gear will cost around 170$ (around 107€) for the brain (reusable Wiring platform) + leds + buttons.
