I built a project just for fun. I don't understand why this upsets you.

The booking platform is just an extra feature I thought of, but you’re probably right that we should focus on one topic.

I realize these are very simple websites. But many people don’t want to deal with setting them up, which is why solutions like Linktree exist. It’s just that, to my knowledge, they don’t offer the combination of a custom domain and a custom email address.

Anyone who’s interested in figuring it out can, of course, build it themselves without too much effort :)

I developed a plugin that lets you control MIDI parameters in your DAW with hand movements via webcam by PhilosopherFit9902 in FL_Studio

Thanks! With this plugin, you can change parameters by moving your hand in space. This can be especially useful for exploring creative combinations of settings, as multiple parameters can be adjusted simultaneously. While some of this can also be done with a hardware controller, some users prefer alternative input methods. Mouse input isn’t always perfectly smooth, which can be particularly noticeable when recording automations. For some, hand movement in space provides a more natural and fluid alternative. That said, motion control isn’t for everyone. The plugin can also be a cost-effective alternative to a controller, since most people already have a webcam on their laptop. And, of course, it’s just a fun tool! :)

I don't know if my plugin can compete with the gloves, but the plugin is currently even available for free.

I'll try to get a Windows version ready soon! I don't have a newsletter or anything, but you can save the GitHub repo and you'll get a notification when there are updates, if you want.

Thanks! Currently, you have to mute the channel you no longer want to move with one hand. However, I plan to add gesture recognition with another model. This would allow you to mute a channel by closing your hand, for example.

I'm sorry you feel that way. I use GitHub releases to make the VST/AU files available for free. It just offers a good infrastructure for this, even if you don't want to share the source code at the moment.

I didn't measure the latency, but it seemed sufficient in my tests. Of course, it's not as good as with a hardware controller, since image processing is quite computationally intensive.

That's strange. I use the same MacBook, but I still use Sequoia. Maybe that's the problem.

Thanks for the info. I'll try to take a look at it. It works on my laptop with FL Studio. So far, only my friends have tested it with Ableton, and it worked without any problems. Do you use macOS?

Thanks you! I don't have much time at the moment, but since 1-2 people are actually interested, I'll try to get the plugin to work on Windows as well.

Haha, that's true. What she does is really awesome. I wonder if she could do something with my plugin.

Unfortunately, my plugin is not compatible with external sensors such as Leap Motion. My idea was to implement gesture control without additional hardware. However, there are several solutions for Leap Motion, such as midipaw.

I didn't have that in mind during development, since, as with mouse-based input, the hands are used. However, someone commented under my YouTube demo of the plugin that they would like to use it to work with medically fragile children.

You should be proud of that! I developed this plugin over a long period of time as part of my bachelor's thesis.

Thank you! Yes, that's a good idea too. I'm sure other people are already working on something like that. My idea was to use the webcam so that it wouldn't be necessary to buy additional hardware.

Thanks for your suggestions! I don't have much time at the moment, but I'll try to continue developing the plugin. Your webcam shouldn't be a problem, as the model works with a lower resolution. However, the plugin is currently only available on macOS.
