 Posted: Mon May 14, 2007 10:42 pm Post subject: assiging wiimote movements/buttons to midi actions |
|
|
hey, im clueless on scripting glovePIE but i found a script that makes all my wiimote buttons MIDI notes. now i want to find a way to make the tilt on the x and y axis assignable in software such as ableton live... right now its not assignable but still works with random knobs(when i re-wire into reason).
also, when i make a "smacking" or drum hitting motion, it plays a very high note, i would like to be able to assign this as well, if possible.
the script i found is in french, which ironically enough i wouldnt understand in english

if you can make any sense of that on how to change it to make the x and y tilt assignable midi triggers i would be very greatful

Hi
I'm also a relative newcomer to GlovePIE, but in the last 2/3 weeks I have successfully compiled a number of simple yet flexible midi-scripts, which allow pretty extensive control of Ableton and AudioMulch, using midi notes and CCs, from tilt, acceleration and button presses:

if you want any scripts or tips, just say the word

DUDE TIGHT! that is exactly what i want
i am not too knowledgable on assignable functions in ableton but yes that is precisely what i want to do. i want to make the x and y axis of the wiimote assignable, also i want to make the nunchuck joystick assignable to modulation. the problem is that i ReWire into reason, so i dont know how to control reason from ableton. but i would LOVE to know how to make wiimote have assignable rotation!!! |

Hey jjcomet
Nice Vid
much like yourself i'm a noob ableton lover trying to nail the perfect setup.
I've managed to get to the point yout at but would be greatful if you could share your script?
I'm using a program called Bomes Midi translator Pro that takes an input from midi yoke. The program enables you to use presets, so your 8 Faders could become 32 with three simple presets. Press up / left / right to activate the three presets.
I've alos read your thread about turning the Y axis into a keyboard. Have you any idea how i can turn the nunchuck into a 12 octave keyboard which only plays a note when you make a pressing motion? |

Here's the script I used in the Ableton demo video; I'm only posting it the hope that some of you will be able to improve upon it. I am still, for example, getting very unreliable behaviour when I try to map midi-notes to Pitch and Roll (due to slight movement of the Wiimote); and I am also getting 'bounce' from the accelerometers: if someone could take the time to describe the difference between RawAccY and gY (with scripting examples)I'd really appreciate it
