Hey there. Not sure where or who to direct this to, but I recently watched a video tutorial on youtube on how to modify your laptop's trackpad into a MIDI-control device much like a Korg Kaossilator: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWE2ptQtYk0. Apparently the creator of this video created a patch to create this device, but the according to him it only works with Synaptics track pads. I'm running a newer aluminum macbook with a MultiTouch track pad, and was wondering if anyone has figured out a way to get absolute positioning information, and possibly multi-touch info as well, into Pd to Midi notes in appropriate scales. Any kind of help would be appreciated, as I'm trying to get my music rig set up to be super-fly.
