This is probably a stupid question, but I really don't know anything about a monome. I do a lot of coding in SuperCollider and I've wanted to buy some kind of controller for some time. I've seen a lot of people write "patches" or "apps" for the monome, like that tenori-on "emulation." can you run these on the bliptronome, or is it more just like the monome in that it is a matrix of 64 toggle-able buttons? in any case, excellent work, and you can count on me ordering a kit from you soon!
Oh my God. You're such a winner, it's unbelievable. I was gonna get a Novation Launchpad or an APC40, but I think this might be a way better idea. I have to ask though: this would be compatible with Macs, right? I don't see why it wouldn't, but I figured I should ask anyway. (If it'd work the way I want it to, I'm totally pre-ordering one by the end of the week.)
Excellent. And it would be usable in Ableton Live as a control surface, right? (Not exactly like a Launchpad or APC, but similar; assigning a sound or something like that to each button.)
I don't have Ableton, but I see quite a few like that on Youtube. Also some apps and plenty of DIY at the Monome site, since "Max for Live" is now a reality.
Even more excellent. (Last question, I promise) If I were to send you a Bliptronic, would you mod it?(I'm assuming it'd cost more than the kit alone, but I'd rather pay extra & know that I'm not gonna potentially screw up, as I have in the past.)
would like to preorder the kit- would this mod be available to someone with bliptronic as an installation by you if the person was not good with electronic soldering?
Can't get this to work. At all.

Is this max patch up for download anywhere? I'd like to have a look :)

Lots of apps in Max/MSP and different languages free and open here:

Thanks! Truly amazing feat of "reverse engineering" or whatever you'd call it
Is "wait for VBlank" an Atari 8-bit programming reference? I once did that also.
May order your kit after I get more practice with a soldering iron ;-)
See my video using audio to midi control for BlipTronic to laptop connection.
