The freaky Midi / OSC-controller topic - searches&finds

[Daniel]

A special spot for your mobile, just right for our generation. Still nothing that beats my mpd232 tho <3.

Gotta have that mobile option, can't do a gig without playing "cwazy cupcakes" during some point in the show

I would be sold if it was an actually a stand; so that you could record your performance while VJ'ing.

Hey Cosmowe, the Zoom ARQ AR-96 from the video you shared seems like a nice piece of gear with lots of potential for control and fun effects!

hey Oaky,
it looks nice...indeed...

All the clips I've seen so far of this controller are so meaningless or...hmm...maybe thats the wrong word...hard to describe...I would guess using this controller is like building a house of cards in the middle of a german Autobahn ...How would you use it?

But...I will test it when I get my hands on.....we have a store near by which mostly have all the fancy new stuff released by big companys.... like Zoom

Best wishes

This seems like a good basis for a custom controller setup:

You can make custom arrays with lots of buttons: https://xkeys.com/xkeys/keys.html

The ones that incorporate analog controllers could be useful: https://xkeys.com/xkeys/analogs.html

I used one of these a long, long time ago with Resolume 2.41 (lower right, a 4x5 array that matched the clip grid):

Hi, if anybody is interested in "getting their hands dirty" and building a MIDI controller of their own, here is a project I did some time ago. Originally it's intended as a controller for MPE (providing per channel MIDI-events, similar to a guitar-to-midi controller).
You either could use this out-of-the-box for certain tasks in Resolume, or take the hard- and software as a source of inspiriation for your own design? BTW: It uses the Arduino Framework with Teensy extensions, which I found a very nice environment to built such things!
