Shapesynth and Sphero – NEW Controls test
Testing out some code having sphero control arpeggio, delay and the filter in shape synth.
Shape is a polyphonic synthesiser allowing the user to draw the shape of the oscillator wave form. The positive side of the oscillation is represented by 32 blocks and the negative side is its mirror, generating all sorts of possible raw retroish sounds. Shape is best experienced with akai synthstation 25 or any other midi device.

Why Spotify didn’t exist in the ’80s
Why Spotify didn’t exist in the ’80s. Some people asked me for the PC noise version of the Smurf song of Father Abraham… Here it is: http://archive.org/details/Squirrel-monkey.comTerribleSmurfSong
Roland Juno 2 iPad controller with Arduino Ethernet demo
Demo of a custom device build around Arduino in order to control the Roland Alpha Juno 2 via Wifi.
The Arduino connects the Juno2 to the Wifi network of the iPad via an Airport router, an Arduino Ethernet shield and a midi shield.
I used Touch OSC to design the controller.
Touch OSC sends OSC messages (e.g /jun/DCO_Range 2.000) which are translated by the Arduino into Midi SysEx messages.
But the Arduino also translates Midi sysex messages from the Juno 2 into OSC messages (sort of loopback) so that when you change the patch on the Juno2, faders automatically move to the right position !
The code and detailled instructions will soon be published on http://4colors.free.fr
The control design mimics Roland PG300, but better !

Paris Hilton turns into a DJ
Not sure whether the world needs yet another DJ, and if so not sure Paris would have been my top choice 😉 – but here goes for what it’s worth
PARIS HILTON WORLD PREMIERE AS A DJ IN BRASIL. Medley of songs played.
At 0:56 is not a pitch problem, the camera has a problem with pitch sometimes.
(not defending, just being fair with the pitchbend comments)

Making A Beat Using Native Instruments Maschine and Vinyl Records
Here is a video breaking down the creative process of a sampled based beat using Native Instruments Maschine and Vinyl records. We included a few screen shots of the Maschine software as I made changes on the control surface. We start off by grabbing a few records, pulling some drums, Choosing some samples and then we put the whole thing together and sequence it using the Maschine’s software.
