<controllers. For controlling a modular they seem kind of lame.

I've always envisioned a disc-shaped surface with zones that were
both sensitive to impact and pressure.

Imagine a circular controller divided into 8 pie-slice shaped zones.
Tapping with finger sends a gate/trigger pulse. Sliding a finger over
a zone while pressing down sends a varying control voltage.>>

Could you use a korg kaoss pad and a kenton pro 2000 to get this effect? I'm
not sure how extensive the kaoss pad's midi is but it could be pretty damn
cool. Imaging running 2 420's, one set to HP and the other set to LP and
using the kaoss pad to change the cut off frequency. Ultimate band pass
filter control :P
