Manta - First Session

YouTube via copenhagennoiselab | November 11, 2010

"First thing I did with my new Snyderphonics Manta. Using a standard midi-patch in MAX/MSP to control the Nord Modular G2. The sound is just a pad with some extended control for the manta."

Manta - First Session v2

copenhagennoiselab | November 11, 2010

"In this video I just route CCs from the hexagons to the Nord Modular G2. I control FX for rhythms on the top row and toggles Delay/Reverb too. On the very left I use CCs to control pitch and amplitude of 4 oscillators. On the other buttons I just control amlitude of 36 different tuned Sinus oscillators. The second and forth row from the bottom is just detuned oscillators of the ones controlled in the row below."

Checkerboard Step Sequencer V2

Checkerboard Step Sequencer V2 from Josh Silverman on Vimeo.

"This is a demo video to demonstrate the use of a checker board as a step sequencer. This video should make obvious the relationship between the position of the checkers pieces and the noises they represent and trigger. It's still a work in progress, but for now I won't subject you to the cacophony that is the sound of an actual game of checkers.

Aside from the kick drum, which just keeps pace on every beat, all other drum samples are triggered off the board.

In this version, I've implemented a Mute Region that surrounds the board. When the application sees activity in the mute region, it disables the updating of the sequencer. This way, my hand doesn't trigger a cacophony when I move the pieces.

Built with openFrameworks and Ableton Live."

Dance Floor Step Sequencer V1 from Josh Silverman on Vimeo.

"This is a proof-of-concept demo video to illustrate the use of a dance floor projection as a step sequencer. The bouncing circles represent dancers who, in their movement across the floor, turn the steps of the sequencer on or off.

The sensing and graphics system synchronizes with Ableton Live to enable collaboration with musicians.
