Subject: oddball joystick

From: norman fay <NFAY@...>
Date: 2000-11-23

Related to the joystick thread, I helped a friend out w/an interview
for "Sound on Sound" magazine a few years ago, (it was with a genius
designer/constructor fellow called Ron Berry - he had build a physical
modelling synthesiser in the analogue modular domain - he did this YEARS
ago - impressive, eh?) anyway, his keyboard controller had a very cool
joystick - it had a ∗knob∗ on the top, with a shaft running down to a
pot underneath it! Of course I asked where he's got it from, but it
turned out he'd made it himself. ultra-hardcore constructors take note
- if you are able to do this, you will have a ∗three-axis∗ controller,
which also looks great! (you will also have at least 1 customer if you
decide to produce them ;) )

best etc
