The Ghost: An Open-Source, User Programmable MIDI Performance Controller
نویسنده
چکیده
The Ghost has been developed to create a merger between the standard MIDI keyboard controller, MIDI/digital guitars and alternative desktop controllers. Using a custom software editor, The Ghost’s controls can be mapped to suit the users performative needs. The interface takes its interaction and gestural cues from the guitar but it is not a MIDI guitar. The Ghost’s hardware, firmware and software will be open sourced with the hopes of creating a community of users that are invested in creating music with controller.

A Shift Towards Iterative and Open-Source Design for Musical Interfaces
The aim of this paper is to define the process of iterative interface design as it pertains to musical performance. Embodying this design approach, the Monome OSC/MIDI USB controller represents a minimalist, open-source hardware device. The open-source nature of the device has allowed for a small group of Monome users to modify the hardware, firmware, and software associated with the interface....
متن کاملThe Electronic Sitar Controller
This paper describes the design of an Electronic Sitar controller, a digitally modified version of Saraswati’s (the Hindu Goddess of Music) 19-stringed, pumpkin shelled, traditional North Indian instrument. The ESitar uses sensor technology to extract gestural information from a performer, deducing music information such as pitch, pluck timing, thumb pressure, and 3-axes of head tilt to trigger...
متن کاملPadMaster: An Improvisation Environment for Real Time Performance
This paper will describe the design and implementation of PadMaster, a real-time improvisation environment running under the NextStep operating system. The system currently uses the Mathews/Boie Radio Drum as a three dimensional controller for interaction with the performer. PadMaster splits the surface of the drum into virtual programmable pads which can be grouped into scenes so that the beha...
متن کاملA Mobile Robot Platform for Music and Dance Performance
Robot can be effectively used for musical performances with motion because it can move around while generating sound and music according to the human performer’s movement and the environmental sound. In such performance systems that users can get feedback for the emotional activation in terms of sound, music, image and motion. In the developed system, all the data are exchanged through the MIDI...

thefollowing contents represent the systematic approach of setting up and running the hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulationfor an active heave compensated (AHC) draw-works as a conceptual horizon of implementing HIL for any plant whereby the model is determined. A Simulation model of the draw-works is executed on a PC to simulate the AHC draw-workswith a physical PLC. The PLC (ET200S) is config...
