One of the primary reasons I got one was to take hand-eye coordination out of my workflow as much as possible, it speeds things up for me to be able to use my hand's memory of where a slider or knob or button is rather than have to use my eyes to guide a mouse to a virtual one on a screen. It only just now occurred to me that you would probably find a similar, but larger, benefit. I recommend trying out a control surface, with the most important ecasound parameters tied to the midi ccs from the sliders. Also, if you find a surface that does nrpn, this allows much more range for fine tuning things like filter frequency that benefit from more than 128 discrete values per parameter. You will probably need a friend to help with setting up the controller, since they usually give all their feedback through an LED display, but I imagine you would find it helpful to have one. I have the Behringer bcf2000 which costs $200, and has motorized faders, allowing a setup where a large number of parameters are mapped to the surface, and you can switch through various sets of 8. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
