Phatty Tuner Alternate Scales Editor

YouTube via MoogMusicInc | January 11, 2011 |

"Chris Rosser takes us on a sonic world tour with the Slim Phatty and Little Phatty. For decades, Moog instruments have been used by adventurous musicians to map the sonic universe. Now they can be used to explore the more exotic reaches of our own planet. With Moog's Phatty Tuner software, musicians can retune each note of the octave and compose in scales once available only to players of hard-to-find world instruments. Indian, Chinese and Turkish scales are now easily accessible along with Meantone, Pythagorean, Just and other historic and experimental temperaments.

Available for the Slim Phatty and coming soon for the Little Phatty with OS v3.0, this free download makes experimenting with alternate scales a breeze. Tuning data is easily editable and is displayed as a ratio, frequency and in cents. Scala files (www.huygens-fokker.org/scala) can be imported and exported for use with other tuning software. An unlimited number of tunings can be saved on your computer and the synthesizer's hardware can store up to thirty-two different tunings; enough to take you around the world and back again.

If your musical explorations actually take you around the world, the Little Phatty and Slim Phatty's convenient size and universal power supplies make them ideal travel partners.

OSCeleton With Quartz Composer

OSCeleton With Quartz Composer from Matti Niinimäki on Vimeo.

"Testing out OSCeleton with Quartz Composer.

What is OSCeleton?
"As the title says, it's just a small program takes Kinect skeleton data from the OpenNI framework and spits out the coordinates of the skeleton's joints via OSC messages. These can can then be used on your language / framework of choice."
github.com/Sensebloom/OSCeleton

I had to make a small Max/MSP patch to convert the OSC messages to a format that QC understands. You can download it here:

I wonder if you can get this going with The Missing Link.

YouTube via gordogordo56 | June 08, 2010 |

"Gordon Monahan uses fruits, vegetables, and a jar of sauerkraut as voltage controllers for a software synthesizer built with ppooll-max/msp and an arduino interface. Performed live at the Subtle Technologies Festival, on board a cruise ship in Toronto Harbour, June 5, 2010.

The Sauerkraut Synthesizer is based on a technical prototype using lemons (The Lemon Synthesizer), developed as a collaboration between Gordon Monahan, Akemi Takeya, and Noid, in Vienna, March, 2009."
