VMeter USB Touch Strip MIDI Controller Now Available For Order


via Rickard on The MATRIXSYNTH Lounge: "Just ordered myself an Vmeter, damn how i accumulate gadgets...will be fun to make PD-patches and stuff for it though!"

"VMeter™ (beta) is a USB MIDI touch strip controller & display. Touch location, on/off state and pressure can all be routed to MIDI controllers. The lights can also be controlled by MIDI messages.

The protocol and computer-side software is open, so it can be re-purposed as any general I/O device you would like. It follows USB HID protocol (like a mouse or keyboard), making the VMeter usable by any USB host controller, even a host shield for arduino.

Textured touch strip guides finger
Compatible with OS X 10.3+, Windows XP, Vista and 7
Connects via USB cable
