Stick around for the Lemur demo at the end of the video. Shit, when Autechre give up their new hardware fetish and start rocking this shit into their post-gnarly Max patches again, we're gonna have a whole new level of mind fuckery. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
that looks like a pretty cool video game. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

Interesting...sounded a bit scrappy though, you might get away with it in a live environment but it certainly wouldn't be much good for studio albums and when all is said and done offers very little new anyway. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
how long does it take to learn that shit |
||||||||
|
|

yeah he was using a piezo sensor to create the sound of bells, instead of sampling real bells. just seems like a gank (geek wank) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
heh, why buy the bells when you can just synthesize them and control them with sponges and coughmedicine cups? Mind you everything we heard was through compressed video... I'm sure if they can write algorithms to copy bells, they have their own special tricks for making dope quality audio too. |
||||||||
|

hehehe. some of that looked... well, pointless (from the video anyway) but it does look like it could be heapsa fun : P |

New ways of interfacing with instruments are very exciting in my opinion, I believe(hope) a lot of artists will move into this kind of area where electronic music is played/performed by the artist kind of like playing a guitar, which adds a whole new layer of skill and depth to making electronic music. It would also allow for very organic swings and humanized stuff instead of the gridbased music that's been made up to now. Hopefully we could be facing some kind of shift in electronic music paradigm soon enough, kind of an evolution really. Imagine how the music today could have been if they didn't decide to use a keyboard to control the first synths, if they had decided on a different way it would have made a huge impact on the world really. |

Can be nice if someone really learn to make MUSIC with that instead of just playin with their fingers. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Electronic music bands are the future, one plays the drums, one plays the lead, one the bass etc etc :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if they had decided on a different way it would have made a huge impact on the world really. Didn't you mean "huge impakt," Impakt? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hehe :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
but the keyboard still is the easiest, that's why it is widespread it's not like other orm dont exist... the first "synth" were controlled not at all by keyboards, but well... comercial succes made everything that made sounds have a keyboard so you could sell it to novices |
||||||||

it's wrong |

If this guy had to define himself in one word it would be 'Diva.' |

|
|
Why have a real girlfriend when you can buy a RealDoll? I'm pretty sure they're in the same price range as a Lemur. And watching some guy play with the realdoll wouldn't be that much more boring and aesthetically repulsive than watching him play with a Lemur. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's interesting but the cost of getting all that together must surely be prohibitive to most people? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, the Lemur is quite expensive, but the potential is somewhat endless. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I want one. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
shit man, is even better. It shows several different interfaces in action. This is the most futuristic and widely capable piece of hardware I have ever seen. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
fuck, if this thing was half the cost, I would seriously consider getting one. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Oh! And it handles MIDI now!!! :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
OK I take it back, that is star trek. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its total star trek! |

it's amazing how closed minded ya'll are. these are instruments, ie, tools that offer an extensive variety of ways with which to express oneself and convey something meaningful to other people. my guess is that if aphex was operating that thing you'd all be masturbating to the video while talking about how he's a genius. and, if the thing was $50 there would be loads of tracks on here by you all begging us to listen to your kick ass, innovative new tunes composed with ground breaking instruments. it's like you are dissing a keyboard "yeah, lame, apply pressure to a piece of plastic and sound emerges, how un-musical." (there were similar nay-sayers when the piano was introduced) and besides, bob moog, who invented the synthesizer, was very reluctant to make it controlable via keyboard and throughout his life often wondered how different music would have been had he applied a different interface. it's really a shame to see people on an electronic music forum discrediting new/alternative ways to create music. it's also exceptionally ironic. *calls wynona rider and discusses "reality bites."* |

The I of IDM doesn't stand for Innovation, I'll have you know. |

heh heh, I think its fantastic. The possibilites are endless. I'm not hating on it. And you have 6 points. |

Lemur touch screen controller gizmo $2500 Open Labs Controller One touch screen controller gizmo $900 Been doing some research into control interfaces. The control one interface is designed for DAWs but with the proper soundcard and cables, they can be integrated into a computer, I am sure. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Oh yeah, the controller one doesn't look like its UI was designed by fisher price. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
but does it have polyphony? :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I like how in the 2nd video he goes- "The Lemur, of course, is polyphonic.. er, um... its polydigital!" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
im hating on it cause its way too expensive for me and i am a poor college student, what the fuk do you expect, its my way of coping |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
dude, seriously, if I won $2500 tomorrow I would buy that shit in a heart beat. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you must respect my coping |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
dude, student loans!!! As a matter of fact, do they have a student discount on that thing? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
gl0tch for $2500 you could get a load of other tools for that price approximating the practicality of the lemur |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
my loans all go for books and food |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, it doesn't cost more then a decent gitar.. rob your grandmother or something. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No, just like the lemur its just a control surface... Neither of them can generate or alter sounds. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if you've wasted your money on anime, you don't deserve better. lol |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that's a mean thing to say |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ok, sorry. solution: sell your anime and get the lemur |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hahaha, I was just sitting here thinking about shit I can sell, but I want a new laptop AND the lemur |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Honestly, I don't see the benefit of this over many of the other solutions available. For the price of this plus a couple hundred dollars you can purchase a basic capybara 320 and a kyma X operating system. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Thats not what I meant, I meant if it supports multiple pressurepoints being used at the same time (ie using more than one finger a time). |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
these are kind of neat. i like the cups and sponges one. it's too bad that these interfaces will all wind up being used to control idm preset sounds in boc-clone songs. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I imagine it would be easier to create boc-clones with a normal sequencer as opposed to lemur. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I would think it allows you to fire samples with both butt-cheecks and adjust frequency and resonance with your balls. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Heh, the reason I ask is because the lemur-team stated that one of the things that made the lemur so special was the fact that it had a "polytouch" technology as opposed to its counter-products. And it did not say anything about that kind of support on the Open Labs interface featurelist, hence I asked Taxidermist who claims he's done in-depth research on the subject. |
