MIDI controller for LIVE

[zkflow]

Ok... this its the deal. I'm thinking in buy this midi controller from Elation, the midicon. Looks great for lighting stuff but i'm planning how to program this. For now, this is my idea.. if you have more ideas to improve (or you know another midi controller) feel free to share



until now , i'm thinking to link the wheels to a "preset button" (with previus auto-start but... how i do this? because i can only controll with midi ON/off but not change the preset parameter.

A preset button (including its slider) can be driven with a midi wheel.

We use an AKAI MPD26 and it works great. It's a lot cheaper then the MidiCon too. Also AKAI makes a MPD32 also that has more sliders and knobs. The pads, sliders, and knobs all work great for what we do and very cost efficient. Just my opinion.

Thank you Josh, I'll take a look at that Akai controller, I'm looking for a midi controller having faders and pads and this can be a very good choice. Would be perfect if they could put the pads of the desired color!!

Thanks!!!!

Hi! Well.. not yet... i'm searching for cheap options... because like Rockinmo816 said... the MIDI CON its a little bit expensive
