The 'Interactive Fx Controller' can be organized to work using
a standard radio mic transmitter and receiver.
Essentially, it switches a tone generator (which is about 1cm
square), which sends a complex telephone tone via the transmitter
that is obviously picked up by the receiver, and the 'on' and
'off' of this tone triggers MIDI events programmed in the fx
controller.
Note that both the on AND off trigger separate events.
I have used this with a Thompson sub Machine gun (easy to do
as there is a usefully large magazine to hide the Radio transmitter
and the tone generator), so the pull of the trigger 'fires' a
looped machine gun sample, and the release of the trigger not
only stops this sample, but also triggers a 'clunk' sound to
simulate the firing pin returning to base. All quite effective
sound-wise - you need
some smoke etc. for the visuals.
