XOXX Composer – Arduino Magnet Based Sequencer
XOXX Composer – Arduino Magnet Based Sequencer XOXX Composer is a new Arduino based sequencer that uses magnets to track the sequencer commands. This is a good example on how sequencer can become more and more connected with the real world. In some ways we use technology to brings us back in time for a more physical tactile use of musical instruments. A few words from the developer Axel Bluhme: The XOXX Composer is a different take on a drum machine. It turns the inner functions of sampling, looping, and sequencing, into a tangible, kinetic and sculptural form. Capture sounds from your surroundings or pick samples from records and then play them back on the XOXX Composer by placing the magnets on spinning discs. Simply let curiosity and creativity lead the way to quickly create unique beats away from the computer screen. The project is a result from …

Dynamic Tonality – XronoMorph | Explore Rhythms in New Ways (Free Download)
XronoMorph – Explore Rhythms in New Ways Check out this awesome free application from Dynamic Tonality. It offers a new way of approaching rhythm composition. XronoMorph utilized mathematical approach that uses two main methods: perfect balance and well-formedness. Check out the video demo on the bottom. A few words from the developer. divider style=”clear” Perfectly Balanced and Well-Formed Rhythms The mathematical principles utilized by XronoMorph are perfect balance and well-formedness (MOS). Perfect balance is a generalization of the polyrhythms found in many African and jazz musical traditions. A rhythm is perfectly balanced when the mean position (centre of gravity) of all its rhythmic events, when arranged on a circle, is the centre of that circle. Well-formedness is a generalization of the additive rhythms found in aksak (Balkan), sub-Saharan African, and progressive rock musical traditions. Well-formed rhythms contain no more than two interonset intervals, arranged as evenly as possible. WF rhythm …

Sonuus Loopa – The Worlds First Looper Microphone
Sonuus Loopa – The Worlds First Looper Microphone Sonuus is a UK based brand created by team of guitar-playing engineers with experience in creating professional hardware and software musical products.
