Guest frob Posted October 6, 2004 Report Share Posted October 6, 2004 hello all im a newbee when it comes to midi, but not diy.i was looking to build a midi transport box with a jog wheel. as nobody affers this as a product, and as a thought if it is posable. setup a automated fadder as transport location. this mite sound a litle criptic so if you would like me to draw the design ask me and i will post a diagram of what i am looking for.thanks in advancefrob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raphael Posted October 6, 2004 Report Share Posted October 6, 2004 setup a automated fadder as transport locationCool idea!Bot the problem will be: I don't know any software (sequencer or DAW) from which you will get relative(!) song positions. And that' what you need to get your fader positon.Or you would need the song "end"-time from which you can derive the relative position from MTC (MIDI Time Code).Instead of the fader you could use a jog-wheel for tansport like it is used in the MIDIBox-LC (Logic-/Macie-Control "clone").Raphael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smashtv Posted October 6, 2004 Report Share Posted October 6, 2004 setup a automated fadder as transport location.That would be sweet...IF your DAW software can be setup to output timecode, AND a MIDIbox app was written to allow you to tell the MIDIbox what the start and end timecode for the track(s) are, a little MIOS math could scale the fader throw length to fit the track length so it could move to follow the timecode.Man I wish I had the time to wrap my head around MIOS enough to write this. This is not a feature request for you TK......would be nice to see the community get together and write this.......so it's a feature request for the community.......Anyone feeling code froggy? ;)Best!Smash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Screaming_Rabbit Posted November 11, 2004 Report Share Posted November 11, 2004 I was thinking about something similar. - Not with relative position...I'm planning to integrate a silicone ribbon into the wrist rest of my LC. Using a horizontal built in non detendant encoder.Problem: Finding a nice looking about 15 Inches round, grippy (with grooves) silicone rubber ribbon.Greets, Roger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
