Cool Looking Interface Part II aka GControl



A little while back I posted about this cool looking interface featured on Music Thing, created by a then anonymous individual. Resembling a software version of the Monome, he described it as a drum controller designed to work on a touch screen but also usable on a regualar computer screen via the mouse.

Well, the guy followed through on his promise to deliver the program for all to try and use, free of charge !!

May I introduce to you....

GControl




Get it Here !

A million thanks and great karma to Godzilla Frog [email]

This is such a simple interface to setup and use and is just so intuitive. I am soooooo tempted to pick up a touch screen just to use this software. I'm not sure if this has been tried on just a mono touch screen or a poly version, but I'd like to know more.

Every once in a while, something like this comes along and just makes you beam with joy :o)

Is there a Mac Version?

Hey jsrockit..

There's no Mac version.. but I have four macs here at home so will give it a go - might take me a little time though cos I've not done much Objective C recently...

So don't hold your breath... or you'll pass out :)

I had the same problem on my work PC using XP but not on my home PC using XP. Gerry says he is working on a fix, so watch this space :o)
