Making Sound with Sensors
Version vom 12. November 2021, 10:59 Uhr von HannahPernerWilson (Diskussion | Beiträge)
Often one wants to trigger "some sort of sound" with sensors. Deciding what setup to use for this depends a lot on:
- the kind of sound you want to make: 8bit music, synthesized sound, playback sound files and modification of sound files (granular synthesis...)....
- your previous knowledge in different software such as: arduino, processing, pure data, max/msp, vvvv, audacity, ableton....
- how much time you have :-)

SOME CONCRETE EXAMPLES
Here are a few setups that have been used by S&&O over the years:
Arduino Sound (synthesized 8bit sound)
Sensors to Arduino, making 8-bit sound with Tone function or with Mozzi sound library
Processing Sound (synthesized sound, playback sound, sound effects)
Sensors to Processing via Serial Port, and various sound examples
Pure Data Sound (synthesized sound, playback sound, sound effects)
Communicating Bodies PD Patches: Sensors to Pure Data via Serial Port or MQTT, triggering sound samples and granular synthesis
Max Sound (synthesized sound, playback sound, sound effects)
Caro's Friend's Max Patch: Sensors to Max/MSP via Serial Port, triggering MIDI in Ableton via OSC
