OTS Slide Libraries and ROLI controllers

[TigerTheFrog]

Has anybody set up either of the OTS slide libraries to use with a ROLI? How did it work?

Thanks!

That's a good question. While not a slide library, there are a few Seaboard videos featuring Evolution guitars floating around.

Roli's software is really versatile. I imagine the thought process may similar to how Touchkeys was set up to work with Modern Nylon in these videos. I bet the 'glide' articulation would work well with a slide library. It'd be cool to see!

The current slide libraries are not in the Evolution series. That was why I posted this.

I asked the developer and what I learned is that that OTS is going to do a new slide library (or maybe libraries), presumably in the Evolution series. So I didn't buy the old ones in the sale.

As you probably know, OTS recently updated the Evolution instrument with a new feature they call "polyblend" so they work even better with ROLIs and other MPE controllers.
