<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" ><tr><td valign="top" style="font: inherit;">Hi,<br>what kind of gamepad would you recommend?<br>I first thought of using an Arduino instead, but it seems that the analogic/digital converters are quite light: "The Arduino board contains a 6 channel (8 channels on the Mini and Nano,
16 on the Mega), 10-bit analog to digital converter. This means that it
will map input voltages between 0 and 5 volts into integer values
between 0 and 1023." Would a good gamepad be really more precise?<br>Thanks,<br>Achim<br><br>--- En date de : <b>Mar 8.6.10, Pierre Massat <i><pimassat@gmail.com></i></b> a écrit :<br><blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"><br>De: Pierre Massat <pimassat@gmail.com><br>Objet: Re: [PD] Looking for a pedal controller<br>À: "Achim Bloch" <achim.bloch@yahoo.fr>, "pd-list" <pd-list@iem.at><br>Date: Mardi 8 juin 2010, 7h25<br><br><div id="yiv1328738955">Hi Achim,<br>You'll have no latency problems with a USB pedal in Linux using the [hid] object. No "noticeable" latency at least. <br>There are two problems arising when attempting to built a USB pedal : first you need to actually make the pedal (the traditional cry baby design is probably the easiest way to go), then you need to connect it to a good usb gamepad. I insist on the "good" here because it is essential if
you want to have a decent expression pedal. The best would be to test the gamepad before buying it and turning it into a pedal.<br>

<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tbody><tr><td style="font: inherit;" valign="top">Hi Pierre<br>and thanx for your answer.<br>I am looking for an expression foot controller. Something working somehow like a wah-wah pedal. But I am unsure if I need a device with an OSC dedicated driver, or if any USB pedal would do the job. What I primarily expect from this device is accuracy, and low-latency. <br>
Do you have any examples (photographs, audio samples) of the device you made?

Hi listees<br>I'm looking for a pedal controller that is accurate enough to send OSC messages to pd, in order to control some effect patches for my guitar.<br>Can anyone help me in finding a good one, maybe providing a perqsonal experience feedback?<br>
Thanks in advance,<br>Achim<br><br></td></tr></tbody></table><br>
