I just ordered one of these link
I'll have a review up soon, but wanted to know if anyone has tried it, i dont think ive seen it on this website, but i havent been on much lately.
Its a touch sensitive midi controller that is kinda like a Kaoss pad, but instead of being just XY it is XYZ, the Z is how much pressure you apply. you can make your own template covers for it too out of paper or rubber and use it as a drum pad. it looks like it has a few drawbacks (it only registers one touch at a time) but seems really good for the price.

i use touchpad2midi, said software applies an xyz pad to my regular laptop touchpad. so i wouldn't want to buy the controller you posted
try this instead if you gotgot a laptop, logicfray wow. that's a nice controller. very elegant looking too. simple.
have you seen this one? quite a it more $$ but also a sexy beast. link i like that one iggy.
also, for XYZ ness. u can get a wacom and use some of the midi apps made for it tylth said: "i use touchpad2midi, said software applies an xyz pad to my regular laptop touchpad. so i wouldn't want to buy the controller you posted try this instead if you gotgot a laptop, logicfray" uh, that looks nice. is there anything like this for mac? I use a wacom with a wacom-to-midi tool. just as good but cheaper
and doubles as an actual wacom tablet for art ;D astroboy said: " tylth said: "i use touchpad2midi, said software applies an xyz pad to my regular laptop touchpad. so i wouldn't want to buy the controller you posted try this instead if you gotgot a laptop, logicfray" uh, that looks nice. is there anything like this for mac?" Q: It seems additional software is PC only. Any chance of Mac OSX apps? Yes. Anticipated date for Mac versions is end of Q2 2006. That thing reminds me of the Koala Pad for the C-64. I have no choice but to like it.

Aw, Koala Pad! That brings back memories...
i dont think the touchpad on my laptop is pressure sensitive, but are those tablets pressure sensitive?
the wacom intuos (higher end) has "1,024 levels of tip and eraser pressure sensitivity for control"
the graphire is half that.
