XY controllers?

XY controllers?

I’m looking for some controllers to add up to my Oxygen, and one of those is a XY controller. I’d like one that is dedicated, or with some extra buttons like on the nanopad.

Because of my economic situation (that is, being a teenager) I’m interested in controllers on the nanoseries>midifighter pricerange. Any tips on this?

erm… only one that i know of is the nanopad, unless you google using a mouse touch pad as an xy

You can find a Korg Kaoss Pad KP1 on ebay for around $100.
They have midi out, but no usb. Which Oxygen do you have? If it has a midi in on the back, problem solved.

forgot all about that… :open_mouth:

Me too until just now. There’s one on there for $119 that is really tempting me.

is everything mappable or just some of it? like the kp3

I only got a usbport, sadly, altough I suppose I could buy a convertingcable if those work?

Do you have an ipod touch? Could use Touch OSC.

X2 on the iPhone/iPod touch apps.

Here are two XY midi controller apps that I know of.

Go midi out to midi in on the Oxygen (if that works) then Oxygen USB to your computer.

Stick a couple of these:

Into your current midi controller for instant X/Y control :slight_smile:
