ryancolecreate Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 I'm getting more into Live, and I'd love to have a launchpad or something like that, but I just can't be fucked to pay 500 bucks for it. I\ve been mulling over the possibility of just building a simple controller that would look like a launchpad or monome (no light feedback though) and send out note data. Maybe one or 2 sliders or something. I've found some things like this >> http://www.audiomulch.com/midipic/ Basically just using a BASIC stamp to create the MIDI note messages and send them out via USB. Anyone tried this before? love, Ryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hautlle Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 Dude, I built my bliptronome for about $120. A poor mans mini-monome based on the arduinome. I'm using it w/ max4live and loving it. Here's a link to my thread about it including pictures. Not sure how much money you can/want to put into this though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryancolecreate Posted May 10, 2010 Author Share Posted May 10, 2010 thanks for the tips. Might do that. I don't really need anything that involved though, a simple ntoes on a grip would be fine for launching clips. :p I do love those mini synth kits there though.

Hautlle Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Ya he has some cool DIY synths. The one I've been looking at (now discontinued due to limited supply of chips, but they're about to come out with the sequel) is this one from Mutable Instruments, but I don't have the money and I don't really need it as I'm still learning the ins and outs of my Tetra and Max4Live.
