Daft Punk with Rock Band Controller and Max/MSP

Me just messing around with my final project for my computer music class. Using Max/MSP, I hooked up the rock band guitar controller to my computer so that I could use it to control sample playback, effects, etc.

Very nice! Do you have a writeup of how you did it? I've been trying to do something similar with VSTHost, a stack of VSTs and a hacked up MIDI controller, but using even a regular XBox controller might work better... You were using an XBox360 controller I assume?

[ipsodox]

No, sorry. No writeup. But it really wasn't too difficult. I've used both the XBox 360 controller as well as the PS3 one. It's really just a matter of getting your computer to correctly recognize the USB controller and then using the "hi" module to poll the input values. Then I just map these values to trigger various events

I very much dislike these Guitar Hero type games, because real guitar is just better, but jesus christ dude, this is fucking awesome.

@ipsodox this is very cool, and has immense potential for productive use (i.e. triggering clips from a sequencer w/ the d-pad controlling banks, etc.) Do you still have this patch, and could you send it to me? I'd very much like to build upon your work.
