hello,
I am working on a project to build a position and velocity sensitive
midi drum pad. The idea is to make a pad which can tell where you have
hit it in two dimensions, as well as how hard, and then use these 3
parameters to synthesise a sound which varies according to the
position of the strike on the pad.
The other thing I wanted to ask (but forgot to
include in my first
post), is can anyone recommend a linux python library for dealing with
live midi streams? I want to write a program which will map the incoming
sensor data first into x-y coords and then into midi events, and I was
thinking of writing the first version at least in python because it's so
much quicker to develop with than C/C++.
thanks,
