It queries the mouse position and sends midi signals based on that. If your
mouse is in the upper left corner of the screen it will send a 0 on both
configured controller. If in the lower right, it will send 127. So the X-Axis
of the mouse is mapped to one controller and the Y-Axis to another.
Upon user request i added OSC message sending support. Which basically does
the same thing, but it's a bit more configurable.
So basically it's a way to use your mouse as midi controller source :)
A possible use scenario would be to control i.e. the cutoff filter frequency
of an analogue synth. Just find out which midi cc the synth listens to for
the parameter you want to adjust with and assign that to one of the mouse
axis in kontroll.
It's a very very simple app. But useful for me and maybe others :)
Have fun,
Flo
