Arduino Synth
May/05/2010 14:09
Here is my first Arduino synth. Pretty sweet. Sounds wild and has tons of depth.
3 versions can be loaded right now, and I am working on modifying the code a bit more.
Thanks Tinker London for helping with the design. Open source is sweet!

I will make my own controller that works with Ableton by the end of this year. How many buttons is really up to me. That is why I am not making any predictions. Above is my Arduino kit. Basically the building blocks to building your own monome controller. I have found all of the individual parts. Now it’s just a matter of figuring out all this C code. My brain is on overdrive.
One More Change
Apr/04/2010 10:25
Can’t make up my mind. One more banner change and the site will be finished. The new editor helps me design so fast, and css sheets makes it easy to change the site. I am working on a new banner. Once that is finished the site will be complete. Hope all of the info here has been helping people. As the classes get more detailed the site will update with the class material. It gives the students reference and the public help to know what I like to teach with Ableton. If you need to schedule one on one time, let me know.
MIDI Clinic
Apr/04/2010 10:11
Can’t wait for the MIDI clinic on April 18th. Going to bring some fun toys and really help connect Ableton to hardware in an easy to understand way. Hope everyone who makes it remembers to bring a controller. Mapping is also going to be a part of the clinic. Templates and the whole 9 yards!

Thank you for everyone who made it out last night. The clinic was a success. We had lots of Q & A, lots of Ableton, and the introduction to the Livid BLOCK controller @ The Switched On Clinic. We will have some pictures at the Switched On website, and some video on Vimeo.

My head is beginning to hurt. It’s now to the point where i can make my own controller from the ground up. Been thinking of a monome/apc40/launchpad hybrid. Don’t know if it will work because I have to start on smaller things first then move on to the larger tasks. The first controller will be a step sequencer for sure. 4x4 or 2x8. I dunno. Sketching ideas now.

What A Week

Working hard on MAX MSP patches. Lots of reading, with too many tutorials to count. It’s has been a fun experience. I need a good list of the apc40’s max patch guts. Still looking. Monomulator crashes like crazy on my cpu once maxforlive was installed.

One Fast Transfer

Here we go. The old blog is up, the links are functional, and everything is looking back to normal. I do have to fix walkingstick’ss site next, but this looks a ton better and is a way better way to read through my thoughts and lesson. This site will soon be the center of the training video’s, original music, a place to get remix work, and all in all a way to see what Out of the Bag Artist’s are doing. Hope you like the design. Email me if you need anything or have questions.
