"The following 3 (three) images are the teasers (well, that's pretty an understatement!) of the module that's currently in development.Its name is RC1radiostar, and will make people happy about having a bluetooth slate, phone, whatelse in their hand and does want to connect to a modular WITHOUT having to carry a PC and a multi-ouput, expensive audio interface.
What it is:-cv source
-sequencer syncable (master and slave) cv source
-multi pattern 16 track (8gates outs (seq)
-open source communication protocol (over BT)
-a couple of apps will be available (android and iOS)
-YES! you can use your 85$ tablet to control your modular!!!-YES! you can also use that beautiful iPAD.
-YES! you can use your phone accelerometer to change seq patterns or filter cutoff freq or SoS feedback or WTF?
-YES! you can have more than one (don't tell anyone, yet)
What is not:
-audio interface
-audio rate modulation source
-expensive thumbs up
Planned release: late November/ December.
May the Force be with You."

The choice of Bluetooth is very unfortunate for this application. BT protocol has a giant latency.

I find the Wii response to be too slow for musical applications.
ReplyDeleteRC1, as stated, is not suited to generate audio rate modulation, nor audio signals. Among its uses there are the live modification of cv's, triggering of events, and automation of all of the above. For sequencing, everything is handled locally, very tightly. regarding the wii lag, frankly I wouldn't play live drums on it, but I will be more than happy to modify up to 16 control voltages during a performance...
