A friend of mine was working closely with the Tactex company to try to
get them to make a useful musical controller using Tactex. Ultimately,
they decided that they didn't want to spend the money to do what needed
to done to make Tactex a good musical controller. Its got a couple of
key problems: very low refresh rate (i.e. latency), something like 50
Hz; and it can't detect two points of pressure closer than about 2cm.He wrote a paper about the instrument he built using Tactex:
There seems to be some trouble with Tactex, didn't was Midiman/MAudio about to release a controler with several Tactex elements and dropped that? Also wasn't it planned to be used in the Moog Voyager but then they dropped that too and used another product?
