my ableton live control surfaces.

going minimal
i’ve made some layout modifications to my ableton live clip controller to fit this case: http://www.mammothelectronics.com/4S1590DD-p/500-1003.htm
the relatively small changes will give some big results because the box is much smaller than a PT-10. i haven’t yet figured out how to implement modifier/alt buttons to add other forms of control (clip nudging, mute/solo, etc), but those buttons will go on the far side of the case.
tight fit!
the design is going to be a tight fit. i need to add much more detail to the core32 pcb (right now it’s just a block, representing the height of the midi sockets) and the control surface pcb (which now needs a complete redesign) to see how it all fits together. at 7.38" x 4.70" x 1.30" (188mm x 119.5mm x 33mm), this is going to be a tiny little clip controller.

catiawork
i’m really enjoying working in catia. the “midibox live” stuff is still in full swing, and the clip trigger device is almost done. after this, i have some ideas for an automapping instrument controller device that also has some nifty sequencing abilities for making clips.
newhaven oled
writing a driver for the newhaven oled. i’m coding the font based on one i found on the web called superpoint square. i like it a lot. i plan on coding other fonts in the future.
prototype for my second midibox live device
this is a prototype design for the second ableton live device i’m working on. it will integrate with whatever instrument you’re using, and also allow for designing and editing clip sequences, among other things. i have a lot of ideas up my sleeve for this one, and consequently i also have a lot to learn.

the driver is not yet complete, but working well so far. i wrote a font generating program in python which outputs a header file that can plug right into existing code, making fonts easily selectable. it’s not done yet because i want to add the ability to edit existing font files. lots of thanks to hawkeye and nils for helping me get this far!
