Collaborative Drum/Synth Instrument


This page is to document Jeff Rowell's 220D project.

The project is a collaborative two person instrument which integrates inputs from a keyboard and an electronic drum set to create a single pitched but highly rhythmic output.


Hardware- The keys are being controlled by an Akai Keyboard MIDI controller; the drum input is being controlled by a Yamaha DTX400K electronic drum set.


Software- Pd is being used to integrate MIDI inputs and perform the synthesis. The model that ended up working most successfully was to have continuous generation of several complex tones with filters and parameters controlled by the keyboard knobs, and ADSR envelopes controlling output keyed by the drum input.
