[sdiy] Nintendo Power Glove Theremin

[Florian Anwander]

Hi Jon 

I asked Chris Assall from Doepfer (they once had a PowerGlove to MIDI converter,
called MOGLI). The protocol is documented in the german magazine "c't", issues
9-12 of the year 1992. I do not have it here and Chris had to go to the Garage
of his parents... But perhaps some one else from Germany (Ingo? Martin?
Juergen?) has the issues.

hope this helps.

Florian
