ZEPHIR is an additive and subtractive digital synthesizer with four oscillators, two LFO and one FM. It has three effects, a chorus, a delay and a reverb that you can send individually to the oscillators. The two LFOs have 12 ports, each on for a different parameter of the synth.

It has also a sampling rate controller for reducing the sampling frequency ratio and the number of bits used to quantize the audio signal.

It was fully developed with Max/MSP. The interface uses some Javascript to animate the faders. The whole synth is inspired by the Max language and every part of it it was possible thanks to great features that Max provides. Moreover it was perfectly compatible for Ableton in Max for Live.

e-String is an homebuilt string instrument. The instrument with electromagnetic bows (e-bow) piloted from the computer, using Max/MSP for the control. Associated with pickups and contact microphones, the strings sounds are amplified and processed (always on Max/MSP). 

The computer control of electronic bows offers special playing and sound modes: rhythm, continuous sound, short impulse with/containing clear pitched or not, and also various behaviors related to computer control and transformations. 

The instrument allow experiences between electronic thought and acoustic sound qualities (related to physical acoustic string vibrations).

This project implies several new instruments linking the voice to the gestures, developed in max:

All these new instruments are presented here:

El viaje de Lissajous (The Lissajous travel) is a 3 piece visual-sound project: El viaje, Lissajous, a=3 b=4. In mathematics, a Lissajous figure is the graph of the parametric equations system corresponding to the superposition of two simple harmonic motions in  perpendicular directions .

This project raises the interrelationship of live sound and image that acts simultaneously on three TVs, a projector and three points of light that act like giant oscilloscopes. I create a multifunctional patch that transforms sound into visual, sometimes what you see is what you hear, sometimes I generated beautiful figures with different waves mixing them in a MAX oscilloscope patch. Also I controlled 3 Phillips HUE lights via WI-FI with a custom patch at the same time.

Max, MSP and Jitter comprise 95% of the software system. The remaining 5% is Python and micro-controller code. 

The Max system consists of a suit of modular components/patches:

 2 jit.openni processes performing skeleton tracking, on 2 separate machines, for 360° coverage

 skeleton merger, combines the 2 tracked skeletons

 motion abstracter, extracts control data from the merged skeleton, all data stored in matrices for efficiency and processed with jit.gen

 sensor gloves abstracter, handles the accelerometer and bend sensor input streams

 main patch, system clock, settings manager, sequence control

 multiple generators, one or more for each scene, generate geometry and audio, some using jit.gl.phys and gen~

 geometry renderer, OpenGL output to TripleHead2Go and 3 or 4 projectors, jit.gl.node&camera make this a whole lot easier than before

 The sensor gloves are built around SenseStage MiniBee wireless (XBee) micro-controllers. They come with their own firm/software suit, the latter in Python.

A performance is completely dependent on MAX/MSP. I now use the pitch tracker module from UBCToolbox to interface with the software, as well as 2 continuous controller pedals. The pitch tracker allows me to trigger videos and sampled sounds from the fingerboard of the electric cello.
