All this talk of the Ondes Martinot and chainsaws have made me reconsider the performance art potential for the Catz / Gametrak controller. When I plug it in, the OS X USB device manager knows its name, but (not surprisingly) chuck --probe doesn't show it. Can anyone offer pointers on what I have to write to make it recognized as an HID device under OS X? <div><div><br></div><div>- Rob</div><div><br><div><div>On 18 Mar 2009, at 08:47, Kassen wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite">Jukka;<br><br><div class="gmail_quote"><span dir="ltr"></span><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">There is a musical instrument where the pitch can be controlled, as an alternative to using a keyboard, by how much string you pull out -- the Ondes Martinot. See <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yy9UBjrUjwo" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yy9UBjrUjwo</a> for a very good demonstration. Perhaps this controller could be adapted to such use.<br> <font color="#888888"> <br> </font></blockquote><div><br>Excellent example. Also; the Martinot was notoriously unreliable, needing frequent repairs; in some ways you would be better off with this controller and a decent MIDI keyboard.<br></div></div> <br>That, and you could "start" it like it were a chainsaw or lawnmower; that would certainly get rid off the slightly dusty image of the Martinot!<br><br>Sorry, I can't resist trying to share my enthusiasm for such concepts.<br> <br>Kas.<br> _______________________________________________<br>chuck-users mailing list<br><a href="mailto:chuck-users@lists.cs.princeton.edu">chuck-users@lists.cs.princeton.edu</a><br>https://lists.cs.princeton.edu/mailman/listinfo/chuck-users<br></blockquote></div><br></div></div></body></html>
