I talked to Grant very briefly about this last week.  I thought he mentioned
10 outputs from the joystick.  If I am interpreting the pictures at the web
site correctly, it appears that it will generate multiple simultaneous
outputs based upon the joystick position.  For instance, with the dome
output, it generates the maximum value at center position then attenuates
when going to any corner. From the corner 2 output, it generates the maximum
value at the bottom left position and the minimum value at the top right
position.

This would be great for generating multidimensional controls from one
controller.  In one of the simplest patches you could use the four corner
functions to four VCAs to generate a quad panning setup.

This is mostly conjecture, however.
