audiocommander Posted March 27, 2007 Report Share Posted March 27, 2007 I'm not quite sure what you mean, kris. 3-axis require three dimensions :)Or it would mean you have an additional state for a 2D pad (something like a pressure pad below) to get 4 values. Maybe just a simple button would be okay, too. You know: without button -> CC#20/21, with button -> CC#22/23...Or you just have to do some math to get the values you'd like to have. Eg you could split up the pad in a diagonal (not really, just mathmatically ;D ), that would mean you have two more axis and could extract four values, but then again for the price of non-simultaneousity.You could take a look at my handTracker (in userprojects->speakJet thread), but it'll take some weeks until I cleaned up my sources and you still would have overwork it a lot, 'cause even if it looks 3D, it's still 2D :)Like cimo, I too thought about the airFX? Unfortunately it has no MIDI-connections.Cheers,Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kris Posted March 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2007 thanks for the replies you get some joysticks that rotate as well as move in two axis ive found the apem series 5000 ive attatched the pdf but i dont think these are compatible with midi-box as these only have 5k pots attached i didnt get a price either i could all ways use two joysticks side by side to control one thing but this would take both hands as to why id want this video has a lot 3 axis parameters RGB etc so it would be handy trackballs could be an option as could virtual controls on touch screens the idea of the joystick with button is a good one as well regards kris Apem 5000 Series.pdfApem 5000 Series.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
