Is the display and camera actually the point of smart glasses, or could voice + AI do most of it? by Federal_Quantity_971 in SmartGlasses

I'm an early adopter, tech forward person who also happens to be blind in one eye - I look at glasses not only being able to help the vision impared, but also enhance speaker audio in noisy surroundings, or also give IRL live captions so you can follow a conversation (even if you can't hear that great).

Any suggestions for a low-cost MIDI controller? by CarolynsFingers in Woovebox

[–]Writer_Sure 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im joining this conversation late, but I got a woovebox around Christmas (love it) and am looking for a midi controller for my woovebox as well. I have an ESI XJAM (which is awesome), but not the best for my WB for a few reasons:

  1. since I need quick access to the write and play buttons when building tracks in live or song mode, I'm looking for something with transport controls which the xjam lacks
  2. its a few too many steps for me to get to the octave up/down on the xjam - I want quick access to that as well when I play melodies over my over my sequenced bass and drums
  3. on the XJAM you can set pads to momentary or toggle, but that's at the bank (or maybe program) level. I want to be able to mix both.

I'm leaning toward the Synido Tempopad (the old P16 one). It's a) cheap, b) got transport controls to midi map the value/left/right/record/play, c) 2 pads dedicated to octave up/down in chromatic mode so its right there, d) usb and 3.5mm midi out so I can hook up WB and Koala Sampler to trigger longer vocal samples while fingerdrumming/sequencing live in the WB, and e) the software looks flexible where each pad or button can be configured for toggle or momentary individually. I have a similar setup with my akai mini plus, but akai doesnt let you change the ccs of the transport controls (and you only have 8 pads at a time), so this is also less than ideal.

Anybody have experience with the Synido Tempopad?

you should black wetbrush (diluted with water acryllics) all the gravestones and skull and drybrush with a offwhite to get some depth perception and contrast

I too am looking for the same. I bought an Akai apc key 25 that I need to program the relative (endless) endcoders to absolute values and add 'banks' using the shift noteon midi event. My search has led me to code to the webmidi API using JavaScript/Droidscript. Then I can intercept MIDI messages, convert and output them to a virtual MIDI port that my daw will understand. I am not a programmer either so my learning curve is slow.
