Dear list,
has anyone used a tactex MTC multitouch controller using Pd? I just got one which has a serial port RS232 interface. Any other users around? Does anyone know if the company is still in business, their webpage seems defunct.
thank you!
Peter
There was a Max/MSP object for it, perhaps you could get the source
and port it. Probably wouldn't be too hard.

Hi

I think they are out of business. There should be a Tactex touch controller going into Moog Voyager synth but there has been some problems and they use now another system. I remember reading that they had to change the software to detect the third dimension which is pressure on Tactex and now on the Minimoog its the size of pressurepoints, the more you press the more finger get into contact with the surface, knowledge which can be used somewhere else.
Cheers,
Malte

Thanks, Malte, thanks HC,
yes, they are out of business as I learned today. There is some example code on their product CD but I am not sure about the licence.
best. P
