Grafting Synthesis Patches Onto Live Musical Instruments
نویسنده
چکیده
A new class of techniques is explored for controlling MUSIC N or Max/MSP/pd instruments directly from the sound of a monophonic instrument (or separately acquired inputs from a polyphonic instrument). The instantaneous phase and magnitude of the input signal are used in place of phasors and envelope generators. Several such instruments are described; this technique is used in SMECK, the author’s open-source guitar processing patch.

Playing with dynamic sound
Physical musical instruments have always been dynamic systems designed to operate within chosen constraints. This paper reports on the interaction design of a new digital musical instrument that uses dynamic stochastic synthesis and how performance requirements have directed the development of an appropriate interface that balances the systems emergent behaviour with sufficient real-time predic...
متن کاملSpeedDial: Rapid and On-The-Fly Mapping of Mobile Phone Instruments
When creating new musical instruments on a mobile phone platform one has to map sensory input to synthesis algorithms. We propose that the very task of this mapping belongs in the creative process and to this end we develop a way to rapidly and on-the-fly edit the mapping of mobile phone instruments. The result is that the meaning of the instruments can continuously be changed during a live per...
متن کاملGestural Audio Softwear Instruments
We demonstrate fabric and body-based gestural control of model-based sound synthesis for live musical expression by non-expert as well as trained performers. These softwear instruments are based on customized TinyOS wireless sensor platoforms and our realtime MSP synthesis methods. Our softwear instruments allow freehand, continuous and improvised gesture, and map such continuous gesture to rea...
متن کاملDynamic Patches for Live Musical Performance
This article reflects the current state of the reacTable* project, an electronic music instrument with a tangible table-based interface, which is currently under development at the Audiovisual Institute at the Universitat Pompeu Fabra. In this paper we are focussing on the issue of Dynamic Patching, which is a particular and unique aspect of the sound synthesis and control paradigms of the reac...
متن کاملThe Interactive Dynamic Stochastic Synthesizer
Throughout musical history new sounds and instruments have opened new opportunities for music making. In this paper we outline a new interactive digital instrument that implements the dynamic stochastic synthesis algorithm devised by Iannis Xenakis. We discuss the history and operation of this synthesis process, previous implementations of it, and how our implementation is the first we know of ...
