(The subject that wouldn't die...) If you are looking for a free-standing joystick to use, search for the old IBM PCjr joysticks! They are exactly what the doctor ordered. (With some work you could panel mount one of these, but I'm not sure that it would be worth the effort.) The

Hey All Sorry I'm so late adding this to the thread, but... Here is a nifty joystic controller that I believe does everything requested. Check it out: http://www.cgs.synth.net/modules/joystick.html Larry T.

Hello Dana, Quite delayed this time due to the concert I just did last weekend: http://www.notam02.no/~terjewi/synthesizer/concerts/20040919/20040919.html (The s.com/moog is featured in the second sound clip). It was quite a lot a labour to do the concert (not to mention all the

glad to be of help Dana - although Scott's joystick looks much, much cooler - and nicer to use. Maybe the 'bat' can fit on the doepfer... I wish we (UK) had places like meci.com etc - that big ol' country of yours does everything bigger, better and cheaper than over here... steve

Hi List, A long, long time ago, MECI used to offer a 150K joystick, made by Noble. I bought some, and they were sweet indeed. In fact, they were the one's used by Grant Richter for his Joyrider modules, I believe. Then, they disappeared, only to reappear at Alltronics. They're st

I have been thinking of adding a joystick control also, the way that Dana explained but never knew how to design the circuit. I'm in the midst of redesigning the front panel of my QKB15S. I'm adding a few pushbuttons and switches to use as manual gates. I'm great at soldering but

Joystick circuits are dirt simple. What makes the difference is just what feature set you want. You can build one as simple as one dual op amp and a few resistors. But, if you're going to all the trouble, why not make something with some control so you do not have to do external

90% of the sound comes from the filter, not the oscillator. This is why we always see people cloning filters and not oscillators. Of more interest to most keyboard players are stability and tracking. Poorly designed or poorly calibrated oscillators will create artifacts that are

Hear, hear! I'll second that vote of confidence in the Korg MS2000 -- I have the rack-mounted version and it's a cool little synth. Great analog modeling, and best of all you can save your custom patches. I especially use this synth for comping and other chord work, but also for

Hi Terje, I noticed you have both the dotcom and Moog oscillators. I'm eternally asking people this, so bear with me: How do the Moog and dotcom oscillators compare? I'm looking for a harsher, richer sound in an oscillator, and remember the Moog sounding more that way. Of course,

A couple of thoughts on the subject: There is certainly a standard dot com font, tick mark set and general layout feel that can be followed. However, there is no standard for dot com component spacing. That stuff is all over the map depending on which module is being used. So, a
