very interesting product, thanks for the hint!
but without a similarly battery-powered control surface, the main
advantage is lost - if i have to deal with a mains cable, i might as
well run a midi line. and even if i found a fader box with batteries, my
client would then have to maintain two battery-powered devices, possibly
with different standby times - i don't think that's feasible, since the
lab where this gadget is going to be installed will be operated by
users, not techies. so if it's going to be wireless, it has to be fully
integrated.
Increase the gadget effect: make it an xPhone app.. and just sent the
info via OSC. - There's already various tools for Android, iPhone, iPad
etc to map on-screen-sliders to OSC commands. The "cheap" option is to
get an iPod-touch instead of a phone, but hey your client may already
have some touch-screen phone - maybe even some old ones sitting unused
on a shelf..
Sure they're not physical sliders and certainly not motorized, but
wireless. YMMV.
if cables can't be avoided, maybe i can find some schematics for a
simple motorfader midi controller and use a simple cat5 for
bi-directional midi and power... suggestions, anyone?
yours truly shameless plug: qmidictl (via qmidinet)
assuming you have the awesome nokia n9x0 handsets (maybe symbian too?
Pedro Lopez-Cabanillas is working on it ;)
it might not have the finest "touchable" precision you want, but it can
be improved, ntl ;)
cheers
