I feel like something like this

would be a lot of fun, if it were midi, and we could assign different CCs to the X/Y Coordinates.

Does something like this exist?

Could make one - http://hackedgadgets.com/2008/04/17/touchpad-midi/

Or use your laptop touchpad - http://www.livelab.dk/touchpad2midi.php

Or just look at the latest Kaoss Pad - http://www.realproaudio.com/product_inf ... ts_id/2931

i'm pretty sure korg's padkontrol & nanopad both have the same xy pad as the mini kaoss

novation's remote series of controllers have them and a whole ton of other stuff too. used a remote25 for years and when it got a bit knackered I upgraded to an SL37, I can't rate them enough for studio and live use. Has a software editor included so programming it is a piece of piss.

Yeah, I've seen the nanopad and the padkontrol. a unit with only a touchpad would be interesting though. The nanopads are so cheap that I guess it's probably the best bet anyway.

iphone/ipod touch ftw, along with a ton of other music and controller related apps available for it.
