Hi, I'm currently at uni studying a degree in sound engineering and I decided for my electronics project this year to build an analogue synth controller. Its going to incorporate several different types of CV's all i'm fine with except one... An XY pad, I've looked everywhere and can't find one, I also can't seem to find out how they work besides the obvious of when you run your finger over it it changes the Voltage at that point causing the output signal. Can Anyone suggest where I can get one and also how to wire it up and how it works?

Thanks Mike

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
