RE: [motm] Re: MIDI Boxes... (ENCORE?)

2002-03-29 by Tony Karavidas

Yes I see it every day, but I'm so buried in work, I have little time to
write.
When I first saw the thread about an analog controller, I was thinking: Uhh,
sounds like a pot (or two or more) to me. Why would anyone build a box of
pots? There are many ways to get "unzippered" control from MIDI. It's just
that no one is doing it. NRPNs have a 14 bit message. if you use a 12 bit
A/D and pass that through a 14 bit NRPN and D/A it again, I bet no one can
here that in a hand controlled pot. Hmmm, sounds like a feature to add to
Expressionist 2.
