Hi all,

is there an easy way to generate midi controller data to be used in AM with a standard PC joystick?
Thanks

I use a program called on the Mac (built in Max) but the name completey escapes me... D'oh! On the PC, I believe that you can use GlovePie to convert joystick movements into MIDI CC# data.

I don't know your platform, but this can be done on the Mac with JunXion by STEIM

MULTICONTROL! That was a the one! It works with any USB HID device.

Only on OSX, though...

I saw this while I was trying to figure the same thing out myself and wanted to post what ended up working for me. I am using a PC laptop with windows XP. vmidijoy is a free program that translates PC joystick movements to midi cc data. It has a really intuitive interface that enables you to set controller numbers and midi commands. The next part is you need is MIDI YOKE. This is a free program that sets up virtual midi ports. Set up the virtual ports in AM under edit > settings > midi input and control. Then under parameter control for the instrument you are using, just make sure the settings match what you program into vmidijoy.

Still, I reason, this sudden removal to an unknown state is not all that different from the kinds of dislocations that routinely segment the lives of the truly poor. Almost everyone is eager to talk, and I soon become a walking repository of complaints. I find special charts for this latter purpose, with spaces for time of day, most recent fluid intake, consistency, and color.
