Using Percussa’s AudioCubes with Arduino

Percussa’s AudioCubes are wireless smart blocks for sound design, composition, live performance, music education and music app development. They can sense your fingers and hands as well as each other’s location and orientation. They have built in RGB lighting for visual feedback. Shaping sounds in this fashion is much more intuitive than using knobs:  rather […]

Dub cadet controller

Noah Hornberger, former Pixar artist, has recently invented a motion-activated musical toy called the Dub Cadet.     The precise rotation and speed of the Dub Cadet determines what pitches play from this MIDI and Arduino-based electronic instrument. It can produce over 3 million possible rhythm possibilities for any one bar of music. By offering […]

Chess sequencer

The musical interfaces can sometimes be extremely curious. That’s the case of  the chess sequencer.     The Chess Sequencer is a step matrix sequencer made from a chess board, where placing the pieces make music. The sequencer is connected to software synths on my Mac trough USB and a Processing patch to convert the […]

Arduino, iPod and RFID make beautiful, handicapped-accessible music together

Terrence O’Bien posts a clean music interface (no menus / no buttons)  based on RFID, as previously seen some time ago. There isn’t actually much new about this awesome DIY project, but it’s the way it brings the various parts together that has us impressed. Designed by Instructables user XenonJohn, with help from software developer David […]
