Real-time Beat-tracker for Live Performance with Drums

B-Keeper is a real-time beat-tracker for live performance with drums. The system maintains synchronisation between a software sequencer and a drummer by analysing onsets form the kick drum andmaking small tempo changes. This system enables the sequencing of computer generated parts in time with the drums and provides a structure for real-time analysis for the purpose of integrating computers fu...

The isospectral fruits of representation theory: quantum graphs and drums

We present a method which enables one to construct isospectral objects, such as quantum graphs and drums. One aspect of the method is based on representation theory arguments which are shown and proved. The complementary part concerns techniques of assembly which are both stated generally and demonstrated. For that purpose, quantum graphs are grist to the mill. We develop the intuition that sta...
