Sobchek is an electronic music-laptop ensemble that combines a variety of styles (Breakbeat/Electro/Glitch) to create new music. The live perfomance of the group of young musicians is very energetic and they use joysticks to controle various effects (plugins) and triggering events.

I searched the web and came up with two free alternatives to the piece of software sobchek uses. Sobchek work with Mac, the free alternatives are for Windows only i am afraid.(I will ask the guys of Sobcheck what sofware they use, I forgat).

Joy2Midi
Software Joystick (DirectInput) to MIDI Adapter for Windows

This is a translator application that will grab events from a DirectInput compatible joystick controller and generate MIDI commands. It can be used to control MIDI-compatible hardware or software. It’s very flexible, allowing you to define your own input events and their associated MIDI commands.

The complete MIDI continuous controler toolkit

MIDIJOYS is a recently developed program that combines two independent fully programmable joystick controllers, and a Continuous MIDI Controller programmable sliders that can send a wide spectrum of MIDI control parameters. You can use the Joystick and sliders to input MIDI data in _real_ time to your synthesizer or sequencer.
