Small physical button???

– not a key because it go through OS and you are never sure of the destination.

– midi button its the easiest solution, but not easy to find a tiny one.

– arduino + tiny button the best way for me. Not so difficult to code and many examples available.

@dbini I would definately use an ESP8226 with a small button. You can send the information wirelessly using OSC to Isadora. No wires, much neater. MArdiono has an example button with no bounce script you could use to create an OSC signal and once in Isadora you can read it and trigger anything you want.

@agentsimon2 - if it's wireless, how is the ESP8226 powered?

@dbini

With a lithium battery

@juriaan - and therein lies a problem - battery power=compromise of reliability. a Korg NanoKontrol in a box with a USB cable is going to be more reliable than anything that needs recharging, but the form factor is very different.

Juriaan

@dbini

Well you can still attach a usb cable to it, up to you

dbini

@juriaan - would it be hot-pluggable?

Hi,

I bought one of these usb key and use it to control the "Pause Engine" in Isadora. It's not very robust, but it works well.

Similar to @jandraka
I have used something like: Delcom Products Inc. - Product Details Page in the past.
Not the cheapest, but easy and flexible.
