If you need something more, I can very much recommend to use Pd in conjunction with either the [joystick] external or the more general [hid] external, which can map any USB hid device (mouse, joystick, keyboard, sensors, dj consoles etc.) to whatever you want (Midi, OSC, numbers etc. [hid] comes with many utility objects dealing with things like converting between polar and cartesian coordinates, which is handy if for example you want to use the distance from the center as amplitude and the angle as frequency. Try that with aseqjoy! In short: [hid] is power- and wonderful.
