PC Keyboard Hack Project (On A Budget)

[MiL0]

does this mean that glovepie can recognise more than one mouse? and convert the 2nd mouse movements to midi? could be a good way to get a cheap platter going...

nice project btw

there is also a script included named mouseparty.

so up to 7 mice huddling over your screen! (midi output possible, too)

yeah multi devices without interfering each others
but so far i think it wont work on win 7 ... atleast the multi keyboard thing didnt for me due to no being able to change/set the default midi playback to midiyoke

but after a long search today i think i have found the right walk around for this issue just let me try it out at home later and i will be posting results tomorrow

i didnt try it but i wonder how dizzy a person can get with 7 mouses running around your screen ... *Panics* AAA ! :eek:

seems like XP is still the best choice for a lot of diy controllers at the moment (particularly if you want to use intermediary software like glovepie, etc)

Yo Extra my eyes are burning for new pics pls wow us

after trying out and failing at what seemed to be the only hope i had ... i totally agree

i might have missed something but anyways the idea of this tiny software was to select your midi playback and set it to default in windows 7
in my case wanted to set midiyoke as default but did not find it in the drop down list so instead i selected loopbe which did not work
to be honest am not even sure what is not working i was half high half exhausted (that's like high x 2)

but anyways i will give it another try today because this tiny software has lots power if it delivers its promises and i might find other uses of it other than DIY controller projects, btw this is the software description and link if anyone is interested: Midi Port Config

P.s: there is another solution that requires editing your registry long boring one, i might give it a try

hehe, I want to do this too, but I'm stuck... I opened the keyboard, but I also don't know how the hell you did all the wiring... I have 28 soldering points, but how can make more buttons on one point?

thanks and good luck! ;D

glovepie works with win 7 for me, went nuts on my guitar hero yesterday with the script as following:

midi.DeviceOut = 2
midi.channel3.b1 = Joystick1.button2
midi.channel3.b2 = Joystick1.button3
midi.channel3.b3 = Joystick1.button1
midi.channel3.b4 = Joystick1.button4
midi.channel3.b5 = Joystick1.button5
midi.channel3.b6 = Joystick1.pov1up
midi.channel3.b7 = Joystick1.pov1down
midi.channel3.HoldPedal = MapEnsureRange(Joystick1.z, -1,1, 0,127)/127


i think the midi.deviceout=2 is your sticking point, as i had no outs till i added this.

in my case loopbe is midi device 2 (number shown in glove-pie dropdown behind the oputputs menu covering the outputs)

man thank you! ... :eek:
i was just about to give up on the keyboard controller project and instead stick to the gamepads controllers

really got down dirty with glovepie and messed up with other midi devices and whatever i could find on the internet but with no luck if it works for you then i will def. follow the steps and hopefully will work for me
cant wait till i get back home and test it out !

[Saoudi]

it finally worked and thanks goes to you derschaich
but because of you i spent all night playing with keyboards gamepads and guitars till it was time to go work !

... now am so sleepy that i keep miss spelling and edited this reply 4 times !

thanks again derschaich you are O-some !
