Re: [microsound] intuos3 vs bamboo

[Michael Palace <palace@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Just a thought about having 128 steps of MIDI data as a limitation..

Since this discrete steps are most notable when slowly changing a filter or 
oscillator pitch, when used in some software like PD or MAX, could a running 
average be used or something related to the slope change of the values be 
used extrapoliate values of 1-512 in the software code.  Slower changes can 
estimate intermediate values, while fast changes it is not necessary. 
Storing the previous cc# value should not be an issue in the software.

Not sure if this made sense.
