[video] Little Phatty with Doepfer R2M ribbon controller

[Zorn]

Here's another of my experiments with the Little Phatty, this time with Doepfer R2M ribbon controller:
I connected the R2M box to the Phatty with two pactch cables: the first controlling the pitch CV and the second for the volume CV (by pressing on the controller).
This is the result:

Very nice solo, it is nice to see the LP used with a different controller than the standard keyboard, especially using CV!

How long did it take you to get hang of getting the proper pitch on the Doepfer?

Nicely done!

[djghostdogg]

you were able to use the Doepfer ribbon controller without anything else?
straight into the Little Phatty's pitch CV input??

yes or no?

[Zorn]

The ribbon is connected to its controller box, which have 2 CV outs and gate.

Harder than a violin or cello?

[Zorn]

It's much easier than a theremin. The scale is regular so the intervals between the octaves have the same lenght.
I set the controller to 3 oct range and put a little mark on every octave.
If you have an average ear you can master it very quickly.

Beautifully done!!
(I'm going to save
up for a ribbon controller
for my LP.)

Thanks for the inspiration,
