with different standby times - i don't think that's feasible, since the
lab where this gadget is going to be installed will be operated by
users, not techies. so if it's going to be wireless, it has to be fully
integrated.
Hello Jörn,
Didn't think about the mains cable :( I think it will get very hard to
find a single wireless midi device with at least one fader that runs on
batteries. You will most likely end up with two separate devices, a
battery powered MIDI controller and a battery powered MIDI wireless
device, and will have to do some integrating yourself. And does it
really have to be a fader box? So knobs won't work?
Best,
Jeremy
