Thanks to the folks at Make Magazine for posting the i3L MIDI bridge for the iPhone on their website. Todd Thille at synesthete.com sent me the info first.
I’m also looking forward to seeing the upcoming beta version of 3L “Thrill” VJ Software. Thrill is the real-time 3D visual tool you always wanted. I saw a version this summer that was quite impressive.
Istanbul based vj collective artificialeyes.tv announce the availability of i3L_v0.1, the first iphone to midi bridge for audio and video software as a free download.
i3L (pronounced “i thrill”) is Freeware developed using Max/MSP as a support application for the native iphone application aka.remote by Masayuki Akamatsu.
i3L receives pre-defined UDP messages from aka.remote.app running on the iPhone, scales the values to MIDI, and allows you to configure the sending MIDI channel and control change message number.
i3L was developed to work seamlessly with our Real-time 3D VJ software Thrill, however i3L can be used with any audio or video software which receives midi messages.
