Designing new MIDI...

[student]

Discuss MIDI controllers, what you like/dislike and what you would change/improve

Hi my name is Edward Woodham, I am a 4th year student at Massey University. I am currently conducting research for my Final-year major project to complete my Bachelor of design (Honours)(Industrial Design)

My Project focus is on digital music production and possible innovation and opportunities within this area, including Controllers, software and the experience of creating sounds and songs.

I invite you to be part of this research process, your input would be greatly appreciated and if you have any queries please feel free to comment below.

Thank you, kind regards
Edward Woodham


To take part simple fill out the survey or leave comments below. the survey is only 17 questions 9 of which are single choice answers will only take 5 minutes and would be huge help to my project.

Lets help him do his final.. Anyone have suggestions?

My only thing initially is to make any midi app as intuitive as possible.
Gotta keep that latency down to a complete minimum...

Oh and Student we are "Community" so you have come to the right place but its kinda dry when you just run in like that, but word up lets discuss.

yea but what about outside of apple products, not everyone wants or owns an apple product. how do you address the latency issues. I like 0 latency with any product or app.

 

[thedreampolice]

Nothing has zero latency, NOTHING

Second you don't have to use a mac with touch OSC, but why are you against getting an ipad?

 

[Relic]

Because they cost alot?

 

[thedreampolice]

How much does a euphonix control surface cost?

I rest my case!

 

[Relic]

Prolly less than whatever new thing Apple drops!

Prolly get a fuckin D- Command for less!

 

[thedreampolice]

Ipad for $500 is a huge bargain
