Pretty much the whole thread as far as I can tell, but it's cool ;) Let's not waste list bandwidth on me repeating myself and you repeating yourself. Your views are perfectly valid, they're just a different topic to the one I was hoping to hear people's thoughts on, which is "How would you go about it?" not "Why shouldn't I attempt it?" > I only want to point out, that the OP should take a pause for breath and > reconsider, if an emotional, idialistic, euphoric feeling should be the Huh? No, probably not, but neither is that where I'm coming from. But OK, done. Paused. Breathed. Considered. I'm now quite happy to continue exploring the stuff I was asking about with people who are interested :) Currently I'm thinking of grabbing a Zotac Intel N3050 and one of the couple of 4 channel USB + MIDI USB interfaces mentioned and seeing whether I can replace my ailing Classic Keys module, which only gets used for mellotron sounds. Len: the USB keyboard definitely wins for cheap and simple, but I think I'm more likely to use something like a NanoKontrol or build something custom on the back of an Arduino. bjb _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
