Rhythmat - Dance Mat Into Drum Machine (with Wii Remote)
Apologies if I'm posting this in the wrong place but thought I'd share this with you guys and see what you made of it. This is a degree project I did recently - as the title says I've turned a USB dance mat into a drum machine with three different backing loops and sample banks. I'm also using a Wii remote to control loop and sample selection, tempo speeds and adding effects such as delay and phase.
Here is a demonstration and presentation of it, any and all feedback is welcome.
hey, nice.
Perhaps consider adding quantisation, by way of [pipe 16n], for instance. That would help.
definitely quantize. you can do this by storing the values that are to be triggered, then a master clock (at the 16th, 32nd, or 64th-note tick value) bangs any waiting values. (It should clear the storage object too, so it won't repeat.) This will eliminate most of the not-quite-on-tempo triggers, but still leave some leeway to make it challenging, depending on the quantization level.
Cool app!
