new agent  - midi device checkout the video -  http://youtu.be/1VdkDzZaxvw highlights:  - supports multi channel midi  - all signals, key, pressure, roll,yaw, strip 1+2, breath, pedal 1-4  - 14 bit midi support  - notes over CC (for fun)  its alot of fun as you can see in the video :)  its all working, but I'm still polishing and finalising a few things, its pretty flexible so i need to tidy things up so others can make sense of it.  #Eigenharp    #Midi    #AlternativeControllers   #EigenD   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1VdkDzZaxvw

May is nearly gone, so here is my Spring offering: I know, I said I wasn't going to do another piano piece, and it wasn't going to be*... but then Pianoteq 5 was released, so I couldn't help myself. This time to be a bit different, Ive used the new K2 piano model which is an entirely new model for PT5.  Played in chromatic mode on horizontal layout with 2 splits, and you can see scale illuminator lighting my path for a minor scale, and with breath pipe for sustain pedal. Im not going to say what Im going to do next month... as it never works out the way I plan anyway! * I actually have been doing quite alot of experimenting, which will appear sooner or later! #EigenChallenge2014 #Eigenharp http://youtu.be/xStoAHZnMrE

For March #EigenChallenge2014  , apologises to Beethoven for my attempt at Fur Elise.  Whilst I can play all parts on their own, once the video camera goes on, I always fluff one bit or another.. ho hum, anyway Im continuing to work on this, so hopefully I can come back to it later and see how much Ive improved :)  * its abridged, Ive not played repeats, to reduce the pain for listeners :)  #Eigenharp   #FurElise   #EigenChallenge2014   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vwBuMtXrn6M%5DFur

Soundplane agent I thought id give a few more details, as previous post was a bit of a tease :) agent talks to Kaivo/Aalto using the T3D Osc protocol, the same as the soundplane uses. when this is detected, Kaivo/Aalto change into a new 'mode', which replaces the 'key' module... - inputs are now: x,y,x,dx,dy (which replace mod,mod+1,mod+2) - these inputs (as well as pitch/gate) are all per voice (which is allocated by agent) - all inputs are floating point, so all hi-res, at eigen resolution. - messages are sent at the data rate, default =250 hz, = 250 times a second, and are 'bundled' to reduce load. - pitch optionally includes bend (per agent settings) in practice everything I tried in Kaivo appear to be 'per voice' , including (surprisingly) resonator.  In fairness Im still 'learning' Kaivo, as its pretty complex beast, to get new sounds from, and finding ways to add the per key is fun/challenging. some (slightly) technical info... I ported th...

How awesome would it be to see a map of #Eigenharp musicians scattered around the world - a group keen on creating more local collaboration opportunities? That is premise behind a new free open resource for all musicians. The Global Map of Musicians. www.musomap.com We would love to hear what you think of this initiative. Find a teacher. Start a group.
