Hawkeye Posted June 22, 2018 Report Share Posted June 22, 2018 Very nice! Awesome integration of hardware & software! You should be able to embed the youtube video by just copying and pasting the full youtube video link (not the youtu.be abbrevation), doing that for you: Have a great weekend!

engineer Posted June 22, 2018 Report Share Posted June 22, 2018 (edited) Hi, jist replied in youtube. This is were I wanted to go too. Which panel do you use and how is it read out? Edited June 22, 2018 by engineer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roberto Posted June 22, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2018 thanks guys. @engineer this is all a question of the software you use. in the video i use stagelight who is capable to host vst's. then there are two moogs controlled also by stagelight and routed back to the software via audio-interface... as example one could use vcvrack (freeware!) as a "touchable" virtual modular synth controlled also with the hardware knobs and encoders... the screen is a planar screen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roberto Posted June 22, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2018 thank you very much master TK! without all YOUR efforts you did the past decades for this platform i couldn't do something like that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
engineer Posted June 22, 2018 Report Share Posted June 22, 2018 How did you get the touch screen "attached" to your system? Via USB? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roberto Posted June 22, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2018 yes, the screen is plugged into the internal intel nuc which is hosting the software. the screen is working flawless with win 10. 14 ms response. no luck with osx - there are no decent touchscreen drivers...

latigid on Posted June 23, 2018 Report Share Posted June 23, 2018 Really great to see your project come to fruition. Congrats! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antichambre Posted June 23, 2018 Report Share Posted June 23, 2018 Clever hybrid! I didn't know Stagelight seems to be a very intuitive software. How do you select the part which is controlled by the NG? Did you find a way for the NG to follow the stagelight track selection? Anyway, very good project Roberto! But I'm afraid for you that people will ask you more information to build their own ;) Best regards Bruno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roberto Posted June 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2018 thanx! 1 hour ago, Antichambre said: How do you select the part which is controlled by the NG? Did you find a way for the NG to follow the stagelight track selection? at the moment i select the parts by hand with the bank switches... stagelight isn't fully grown yet, there are several things that aren't working. no proper midi assignements, it's not possible to record and playback controller data and so on... so for the moment is cool to jam with it... im working on a max4live interface where things maybe get more easy to do. for example sending controller data to change the banks... also it would be cool to have the parameter names feedback on the GLCD's. OSC or midi exclusive? i havent figured out the best way to do yet... 1 hour ago, Antichambre said: But I'm afraid for you that people will ask you more information to build their own ;) no problem. this is what this forum is for!
