Hi all! I'm trying to write a PD file so I can control various MIDI parameters with an ipod touch, using the accelerometer. Using touchOSC and PD, I am hoping to be able to control elements of a VST synth (LFO, pitch, etc). I have written a PD file for three faders in TouchOSC but I don't know where to begin with the accelerometer. Any ideas? Thanks in Advance!!

judging from the processing patch at http://stefangoodchild.com/journal/2008/12/touchosc-and-processing-accelerometer-example-code/ you should use /accxyz.

ie.

[routeOSC /accxyz]

to get usable data you may have to parse it further, i'm not sure because i don't use touchOSC.

you could have actually found out that /accxyz was used for accelerometer data by connecting a print and observing what is printed in the console. hope that helps some.

try this one. i based all of my accelerometer stuff on it.

Thanks guys! I'll give it a try and see what happens
