Homework 3

Wooje Cho

The piece used for this homework is named "Hopeness" and now it has three instruments: Piano, Electric Bass, and Drum.
I was working with this piece about 5 months ago and I just blew up the midi file by mistake.
Fortunately, I save some mp3 files of it, and even more fortunately, I found piano only version of it, which I used for this homework.
Because I think my piece is incomplete, someday I will restart (or continue...) to complete the piece. I don't know when though...

For this homework, I cared about timing.
I make the duration of each sampler to be a half measure of the original piece(88bpm, at least I didn't forgot the tempo I used before)
and each note generated by chuck to be a quarter measure(=one beat) of the piece.
I tried to make each sampler start at exact beat of original piece, not a half beat, 0.3 beat, etc..
for this I changed some code but I don't know whether this was successful...

I found that "sinusoid" is based on real time that, for eachtime playing with chuck, it generates different sequence.
I thought that this is another kind of "random"- I thought that one random would be enough -
and modified some code and made it is not dependent to real time.
My sinusoid will now generate same sequence everytime.

Thank you and I hope you would enjoy it.
