More playing with an Android

Much more practical than audio over wireless is ardroid a remote control Ardour. It just works really nice. There are a number of other remote controls out there for the Android one of which looks like a complete MC set up (TouchDAW) but I am realizing (besides not getting it to work) that it is really more than I want or need in a touch control. And would likely lead to finger trouble. The other nice toy was goOSC which can be set up however someone wants it. It will take me a while to get it doing something useful as the learning curve is a bit bigger. But very flexable. A standalone GUI on the computer for creating layouts would be great... I should make one :)

The only thing I would like with ardroid is one fader/peek meter so I can adjust the input level which at my instrument. I realize the meter would be slow and laggy and so would suggest only a static peek with reset. It could even be text.

Most of the fader like controls I have seen on these soft controlers jump. That is they don't move it you touch the control away from where the control is but if you then slide your finger up to where the "knob" is, the center of the knob will jump to where the finger is when the finger reaches the edge of the knob. This may be something to do with the android GUI.

I would suggest that a better way would be to take a touch anywhere on the fader to be as if it was where the fader level already is and move in whatever direction the finger moves from there... if the GUI allows such things.
