Martin Gretschmann is a busy man. But somewhere between playing electronics and keyboards with the Notwist, producing his own tracks and DJing as Console or Acid Pauli and composing film soundtracks, he found time to talk to us. We visited him in Weilheim and heard how he uses Ableton Live in the Notwist. We also had a look at his incredible new studio which is absolutely full of beautiful gear: watch the movie.

   Yup you can use allot of different objects to transmit midi (nes joypads,rockband guitar,drums,ect). It sends HID data which essentially is the same as mice,joysticks,keyboards ect. sent you a pm
