Controllers for modulars

1999-11-30 by David Bivins

It's been a while since anyone's mentioned Tannerins, ribbon controllers,
etc. I fantasize about a knob/slider/whatever box that I can use with my
modular. Basically it would be a box with some big, weighted knobs (like the
size of the rotary encoder on the Moog Source), some sliders, some buttons,
two or three joysticks, etc. and a bunch of CV and gate outputs on the back
for interfacing to the modular.

1) Is anything like this available?
2) Correct me if I'm wrong (like *that's* never happened on this list), but
wouldn't such a controller be relatively easy to build given that I'm not
trying to scale or anything so precise?

Thanks,

David (who really should be working)
