[LAU] An atrocity committed with PD

WARNING: this is harsh and pretty much unlistenable-- and certainly unmusical--, but I find it hilariously funny:

http://www.restivo.org/misc/moltar-atrocity-0.1.ogg

I modified a PD sample-mangling patch, attached MIDI CC's to some of its parameters, loaded it up with a sample from a classic "Space Ghost" episode, and spent a few minutes of gleeful insanity tweaking MIDI faders.

Not only is it a sonic atrocity, but it's also a legal atrocity: there's no way I'd ever be able to clear the rights to this from Cartoon Network, so I'll take this down after a few days.

Serious question: what do y'all do about the 1980's-era idiocy of MIDI, in that it only has 127 steps in its CC's (sheesh, not even a lousy byte!). Do you burn two controllers with fine/coarse adjustments? If so, how do you determine the scale for fine and/or coarse?
