I have a NuLOOQ here that I convert to a joystick (using udev.) From
there, there are existing bridges to whatever if not direct support.
Regarding Nathanael's idea of "drum control at the wink of an eye": This
may not work as intended depending on the time-resolution of the device.
The NuLOOQ for instance, sends messages every 10ms from the lower 3-way
mechanical part - which is fine for pitch-bend/modulation control - but
drops to 20ms when you use the upper circular touchpad/jogwheel. IMNSHO,
latency/jitter in the 20ms range would be totally broken for triggering
drums.
But without having the actual device available for investigation, it's
quite impossible to form any opinion on its usefulness.
