HiI hope that MIDI type of controllers will be supported. They can be found cheap and are "easy" to make. That means that it would be possible that some small company's do make a small controller. For example 3 knobs (with rotary encoders) and a few button's.
Indeed, but if you've used both you'd understand why. Tangent is truly professional quality: fit, finish, feel, functionality are all excellent. Still, it's fantastic news that the ecosystem around C1 is continuing to grow.(Bias alert, we are a tangent dealer)
I'm not entirely sure what a midi controller is, but this was reported (by a reader) on the Phase one blog as working well with C1https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0032XQP1K/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=2O8RYPYCA0OB4&coliid=IX9GETCXJ6AZVCheers,Graham
midi is an interface protocol that's widely used in music equipment. And there lot's of cheap controllers for that (50 euro's or so).
At the moment I think the interface between the controller and CO is done with keyboard shortcuts or it's at least possible. Can somebody confirm this?I think that this makes it even simpler to make a controller. Seems to me as a nice Teensy project with some buttons and rotary encoders (knobs).
Keyboard shortcuts seems to be how the controller I linked to above works.Cheers,Graham
Well it's also mentioned in :http://blog.phaseone.com/your-shortcuts-to-a-faster-workflow/
The Tangent is a native API connection that Phase One and Tangent collaborated on. It is NOT sending keystrokes/shortcuts.
Excellent point Doug!What you have setup for keyboard shortcuts is in no way related to what you can setup for Tangent.Also accessing a short cut to say move a slider is no where near as fluid as using the Tangent.Not to mention you can also cycle through modes to change the operation of each panel. I.e Capture, Adjust, Retouch...If you want to see it in action, sign up for a webinar tomorrow.https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/rt/5199137867394563073
What panel are you using for the webinar?
