Very exciting. The possibilities of having the output of my guitar trigger changes in my max system are almost endless. It could be anything, from random functionality change, to just basic things. Like imagine if you play a particular frequency, it triggers a script that records a 10 second loop, plays it back in random speed, and then stops. I could even make the system randomly respond to different frequencies on the guitar and plant little easter eggs throughout my system. One minute, a 440hz frequency triggers reverse loop, the next it is triggering my random pitch shifter, the next it is chopping my signal up or using some granular synthesis stuff. Hey, maybe I can write a patch that shuts my system down if I play too many notes. :) Kris > On Thu, Jun 12, 2008 at 1:45 PM, Krispen Hartung <khartung@cableone.net> > wrote: >> >> You just reminded me to finish something I started!
