thanks a lot for the help, I've emailed the technotoys dude - hopefully he'll be able to help me out. I'd love to build a custom controller for ableton, but my soldering ability is sorely lacking...if only they'd mass-produce sasha's ableton effort... http://feed.proteinos.com/item/2665 - although really the faderfoxes are pretty good: http://www.faderfox.de/Faderfox-Homepage_english/faderfox-homepage_english.html cheers! alex >From: "schism" <xxxxxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx> >To: <xxxxxxx_xx@xxxxxxx.xxx> >Subject: re: simple MIDI analogue programmer? >Date: Mon, 4 Jul 2005 21:42:39 -0400 > >hi, > >Excuse me if I'm ignoring the "simple" part of your sequencer request >but... >Are you on a MAC or Windows machine? >If Mac I would recommend Numerology: http://www.five12.com/numerology.html >Its flexible and not as compicated as it looks. >Unfortunately I only use Windows so I have only messed with it a bit at a >friend's place. > >This sequencer should provide everything you want. >But if you're looking for something simpler and on PC then I recommend one >of the sequencers from the now defunct Techno Toys: >http://www.technotoys.com/ >Unfortunately you can no longer buy them but I think that means they're >freeware.
