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 :-)
