Wondering if people would be interested in having a custom controller for reaper made.
It basically would be a controller to just control plugins with hardware encoders and some buttons.
I've been integrating my QCon Pro G2 controller with reaper with the CSI project, but I feel that mapping the effects to that surface is not super smooth and buying something like the Console 1 although it seems to work great, is limited to the effects they provide and also, there are no displays on it to tell you what you are changing.
I'm currently looking for people who could do the electronics to create it and I would design and do the physical enclosure but want to feel out how many people would want this and how much they would be willing to pay?
Here's the idea I had so far.
All the encoders would be push buttons also btw.
In essence this controller would focus on the track FXs that is selected. (I'm also thinking about making focus on item FXs as well)
Encoder 16 could change layers, or FX applied to layers, or presets from selected FX.
Encoders 1-15 would have parameters mapped from selected FX. And the Up/Down/Left/Right keys would be able to bank across FX parameters.
Bypass - bypasses the FX selected
Wet/Dry - engages Encoder 16 to be the wet/dry dial
Layer - Makes encoders 1-15 have an alternative function
I'm also thinking of adding another 3 buttons.
to add extra custom functions.
How much would people pay for something like this?
