CS-80 mode for A-198 or R2M Ribboncontroller
2006-06-01 by Florian Anwander
Hi, as far as I remember the ribbon controller of the Yamaha CS-80 works that way, that it takes the position, where you touch the ribbon the first time, as the center (=0 Volt) and if you move then your finger it produces voltages which are an offset to this center. Now I am looking for a possibility ro reproduce this with the R2M or A-198 (plus other modules) respective. On the R2M controlling a MIDI synth it would be quite simple, if the software would not send the NoteOn info. Also I could take a MIDI-filter box which suppresses note commands and then feed this "notefree" MIDI to a MIDI2CV interface. But how to do it with an A-198? Florian
