What you need
For this walkthrough, you will need:
- A WiDig with power supply (USB cable or USB battery pack)
- A Flash sensor
- A ReachCloseD
- A SeeLaser-GreenWide or any laser of your choice
- An iPad (or other iOS device) running GarageBand

EditorX Configuration
Now its time to set up the sensors to map to MIDI messages. In the example, we emit two parameters:
1.) The ReachCloseD's distance value is mapped to pitch bend
2.) The Flash sensor emits a note on/off pair when the laser light is interrupted
