Re: Interseting controller/digital synth

2005-08-20 by crmatt99

I stumbled across this some time ago. I was searching to see if anyone was making a 
controller analog or midi like the buchla touchplate controllers. I will probably never be 
able to throw down that much for a continuum. 

What I am after is some alternate means of controlling my growing MOTM, I play guitar 
mainly and have very little experience with keyboards in the formal sense. Right now I 
don't a midi/cv so I am just tweaking knobs and recording to pro tools. 

If anyone can point me to a DIY touchplate controller like Buchla's or of someone who 
makes such a thing that would be great.

p.s. Knob tweaking is an excelent interface!
