Subject: Re: [PD] Alternate Controllers<br>To: Martin Eckart <<a href="mailto:imartron@gmail.com">imartron@gmail.com</a>><br><br><br>Well, the stuff I would like to do with it would not be using MIDI. I have a program that I would like to control via some continuous controller, it is a granular synthesis program, and each parameter has 6 limits from which the actual parameter is derived. So, basically, I would like to not only be able to produce some continuous data, but also be able to easily select which parameter I will be controlling at any given time.<div>

It depends on what you're looking for, USB joysticks/controllers are<br>
fairly easy to map/remap to midi with PD.<br>
