Kay. This is kind of neat. Its a midi controller, but you can buy different modules for midi sensors, like pressure meters, temperature meters, contact ribbons, lasers, bands that wrap around your body to sense movement like dancing, d-beams, motion and distance sensors, shock sensors, velocity sensors and a bunch of other unconventional stuff. Theoretically, you can make any kind of environment your instrument and interact with it any way you want with this thing. |

^Bump^ for the musicmakers. This shit is much too hot not to get noticed by everybody. |

looks pretty cool though, would be nice to have a whole stage full with these kind of things. like a complete environment. and hook that shit op to some max/msp patches. and then you just have to walk on stage and just act all crazy. |

Yeah. Or reaktor. You can hook up eighteen different inputs if I am not mistaken. A complete stage of different gadgets and things. Like, you could go to the beach, and make music with the beach, or go to a science lab, and see what the different chemicals to to the heat recepter. I don't know. I am dissapointed with the ammount of interest this has gotten since I posted it. I was hoping more of the 'innovative' musicers here might see this and go 'oooh' or something. I guess everybody wants to spend all their time ripping off snares and afx. :( Controlling music with a laser! |

An example of innovative use of midi triggers; Leafcutter john connected midi triggers to all the buffers in a pinball machine, and then connected those to a max/msp patch, so anytime the ball hit something, it triggered a sound in his computer. |

Bump for the people who read that midi gun thread and actually talked about it. |

Come on! That midi gun didn't have a midi laser! |

I thought it did, watch the video. |

NO! This thing is better. It has a laser. Plus its not trying to hide its lack of badditude within a dollar store water gun case! You can make music with hot water. I don't care! Midi triggers out of firecrackers! A totally open ended controller setup! You guys are always going on about innovative musicians that only really regurgitate the same half assed overdone underground music trend, and then something truly innovative comes along, and you practically ignore it, saving your conversation for an overglorified piece of dollar store junk!!! There is no passion here. Only the inability to truly judge between left and right! |

Midibullets are deflected by mid router, and sent into roland synthesizer creating massive wall of sound, causing your knees to quiver and give. You lie on the ground, helplessly looking up as I hammer your hands and feet onto a plank of wood, which I proceed to hang from the roof of my building with a big neon sign saying "hark to all who draw near" and a smaller painted sign underneath saying; No guns No horsethiefs No outlaws |

You know, when I bought my roland sh32 I really was expecting a mediocre but usefull synthesizer. What I got was an extremely awkward to program, but powerfully rich sounding synthesizer. The presets are truly awfull, but its so rich and deep that I have to run it through a compressor otherwise I run the risk of frying my speakers and headphones. And it automatically brings up the last patch used, so you don't actually need to take note of it when you shut everything down at the end of the night. It also does a 303 better than anything I have ever touched, 100 times better than any software. The only big problem is the stepping that occurs on the high pass filter. |

Innovation in music has nothing to do with with some fancy gimmick. If you can use this in a way that actually sounds good then fair play. Otherwise be quiet please. : ) |
