Amazing homebrew Live controller
Amazing homebrew Live controller Posted on: 19.06.2010 by Trudi Mayerchak http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WQU-...layer_embeddedWhile programs like Ableton Live have truly democratized electronic music making, most hardware interfaces can't hold a candle style-wise to traditional instruments (or even the MIDI gear of the Awesome 80s). Rather than merely bemoan this depressing fact, however, a musician from Zurich named Zander Ander has built his own controller -- and it's truly a thing of beauty. Based on the uCApps.de MIDI hardware platform, this thing employs custom acrylic knobs, colored LEDs, and a whole bunch of buttons to bring his DAW controls into the real world -- while kicking the ass of controllers like AKAI's APC40 in the process. But don't take our word for it! Check it out for yourself after the break. Source: Engadget.com | |

| Lillia Doc 19.06.2010 | what sucks about these controllers is that no one can master them but the people that made them ! :P But i'm in love with the slim design, and it looks like something the Apple designers would make if they made midi controllers. |
