[Rakarrack-users] nintendo ds user interface

[Jane D. <jd...@ya...>]

Hello,

My name is Douglas McClendon, and I've really been enjoying rakarrack over the past few months as I've been learning how to play guitar.  Being the hacker that I am, certain enhancements had to be made.

So in my spare time I put together some *proof of concept* code, showing how to turn a nintendo-ds into a kind of 'whammypad', amongst other things.  Basically you get to map a couple midi parameters to the X and Y touchscreen values, and use the buttons to change presets.

I don't know how easy it is, but it may be possible do the same thing with the dsmi library or applications, though I'm surprised a quick google search didn't turn that up.  In any event, I have much bigger plans for this than just simple midi knobs- stay tuned.
