Interesting, I'm trying to picture using this over nudge buttons or something. Problem is I just feel god awful awkward when ever trying to use the accelerometer, I was always awful at super monkey ball or any of those jet ski games where you actually have to move the device but maybe if the sensitivity was WAY down...

My thoughts too, initially! Very relactant to use accelerometer to control "mix critical" parameters but for stuff like filter sweeps (accelerometer_to_bipolar template) in drops or pseydo-random effects' switching on-off (accelrometer_to_pads template) it is, indeed, usable.

My thought was simple. Lean it forward or backward (depending if you wanna nudge + or -) and by pressing the button you trigger the nudge function. You keep holding the button until the two tracks are both on time. Then you just release the Button. I don't want the angle of my rotation ,to define the amount of nudje I'm doing. Just + or - using one button instead of 2. It is just for fun and it should need some practice ,cause we've all have been used in using 2 nudje buttons and/or Jog Wheel. Don't know if & how I'm gonna use it though. I should have my iPad by now to test some things but unfortunately something went wrong with the seller. I'll try to get it next week. Thanx for the feedback anyway :) .

I've realized that I forgot to set every command or led to Target & Object Target 0 !!! They are @ "none" both. Now that I'm trying to send some midi command after pairing deamon to IN/OUT MIDI 0 ,and can't get any of the commands mapped. Is there a way to select them all and apply Target & Object Target to 0 ,or I have to do it one by one???

I think you have to do it one by one...

Bump... :(
And what's the difference between Target & Object Target ? Do I need to set both of them to MIDI 0 ?

Frankly Im still not sure how these two work....initially I thought setting up "Object target" would be sufficient as in "all object's variables default to this target" which is not the case because then you still need to set "target" to parent. In essense "Object target" is the "parent" for "target" while "Object Target" parents are the objects higher in the priority.

So, you dont have to set both - since all your targets are now "none" just set all "target" settings to desired target and skip the "Object target" settings.

For future designs, I think the best method is to set automap to "parent". This way all your project objects will "follow" the target specified in the object which is first in the hierarchy.
