Simple (but fun) CV joystick made from a QuickShot video game controller- voltage comes in via 1/8" jack, goes to internal slide pots wired as voltage dividers, comes out via two more jacks:

I love this one! The sounds coming from the XOR, due to the joystick are wonderful! Very Happy

Are you going to hook up the joystick button as an on / off type functioning button? Smile

My original plan was to put a couple LFO's in there that replace the plain CV signal with button pushes, but while playing with it, it occurred to me that it might be cooler to have them just hooked up to the CV as a trigger output. Then I could hook that up to an AR envelope (when I finally get around to building it)... have that hooked up to an osc & VCA, then I can make "pew pew" sounds when I pull the trigger. Very Happy
