I'm starting from the premise that analog synths sound different than digital ones and that some people really like that analog sound. please don't tell me how fresh reaktor is because you're right and I want it, and I love my computer etc.

now, the pulse is relatively cheap becuase it has so few knobs on it, right?

if waldorf made an *entirely* knobless box that worked only with a mixer-map type interface via computer/midi, how much cheaper do you think it would be?

what I'm thinking is that they could make a *polyphonic* analog with NO knobs cheaply (maybe) if it had a software-only interface.

does this make sense?

Xo, in fact you are partly correct. The fabric used in the 'sliders' is made of the same material as this pad I'm talking about. Three dimensions of sensitivity from multiple points. That says that it can be nicely split into zones, keys, etc. for literally limitless applications. It was developed by Canadian Airspace over the past few years, and some small company made a controller out of it. I don't know how far folks went with the implementation, but it was a concept I came up with about ten years ago, and it's nice to see somebody made it a reality.

Bloddy (sic) well forgot about the Matrix 1000. Very nice "black box." I remember being gaga over 'em after seeing Karl from Om use one. Gonna have to go searchin'.

Thanks to the rest of you for the info on the controller, not really what I'm after, but still some cool concept....

Peace
