dunno, that link you put up is pretty cool. i'd love to have something like this for some reaktor synths. it'd be cool to have a reaktor-based kaos pad!

It is an expencive hobby init,.. why cudn't i have jus enjoyed going running in my spare time, for free lol. But no, its music, which involved openin up a new bank for monitors

and the rest..
What am i chatting, it feels good spending lots off $$ and getting flashy gear, we love that shit in our geeky ways hehe

as for the toutchpad, no progress yet..

Isn't here a keyboard controller that has a touchpad? I also think that the Korg Pads have midi output.

If the touchpad shows up as a USB HID device, you can use the HID input object in Bidule, I suppose.

But I think most built-in touchpads are still PS/2 devices though.

I know you can set up a tablet like this in Max/Msp, but I'm still working on it, its a beast of a programme. Theres a simple way to do it in Reaktor too using the XY axis haven't had a go at using that properly yet though.
