"MixPad is a full featured MIDI file player/recorder/editor. It will let you take any raw MIDI file with you on your Palm compatible handheld or phone. You can play the song with our Krikit audio engine, on connected MIDI hardware, or on a sound card if your handheld has one. MixPad differs from any other MIDI file applications for the PalmOS; it includes powerful graphic support for simple viewing and mixing.Usable for real performance situations, or music practice, MixPad gives you a powerful real-time mixer interface to control channel volumes, panning, and solos and mutes for every track during playback. The main display gives smooth scrolling of all MIDI data (including velocities and controller data) and zooming. Unlike other MIDI file players that use hundreds of kilobytes (or even megabytes) of memory for sound samples, our software synthesizer generates audio without any recorded sound; it's only 10k! Song files are also very small (usually under 100k)."

Hmm. Maxi Pad controller?
ReplyDeleteImagine a room full of women with a MaxiPad controller down there where Maxi Pads do their work. These controllers would all be networked into a giant synthesizer. Each controlling a specific function. Depending on flow, one could influence the control a synthesizer parameter.
Eventually, all the women would sync-up.
This shall be my greatest composition yet.
(if I'm not killed first)
All my sentences have PMS just before the period.
(oooh I'm cringing reading my own post)
for minimal tracking on the fly, this looks like quite a fun tool!
ReplyDeletealthough i think the palm os and hardware (underpowered) is beginning to loose it a bit these days...
for mobile tracking, i love Milkytracker (pocketpc - freeware - FT2 compatible) :D
as for MaxiPad, i think women everywhere will be wondering what happened when their palm breaks and the insurance tells them its 'water damage'
WTF?
ReplyDeleteShut up Paul.
You're tiresome and simply not funny.
