controllers

Hey, I´d rather like to see a "PC-joystick-to-CV/Gate-adapter" released [like the one from synthesizers.com, but minijacks and more outputs, please: http://www.synthesizers.com/q142.html#qpcja ] than a N64 controller. Great in combination with the Microsoft Precision Pro Joystick: x- and y-axis,16 assignable buttons, throttle wheel and a coolie hat. Lots of possibilities and don´t forget: you can put a joystick upon the table or your keyboard. I hope this doesn´t sound like an ad for Microsoft... Another nice controller: A multidimensional touch panel like on the Minimoog Voyager. More versatile than a simple ribbon controller. My vision: Touch panel module; about 32 HP wide; x-, y- and z-axis; each axis has two outs, one of them with an attenuator; touch panel size: 10cm*10cm (3,75in*3,75in). I should start designing modules and run my own company ;-) bye, Paul
