TAG RESULTS FOR: synthesis

Once in awhile, I come across an invention that blows my mind in terms of creativity and functionality. Jay Silver’s Drawdio most certainly fits into that category. Drawdio is a pencil that has a simple synthesizer hooked up to the graphite. Based on the conductivity of graphite, drawing on paper will produce various different sounds creating a one-of-a-kind music experience. This is user-interaction on a whole other level. Believe it or not, you can build your own Drawdio. The famous... Continue reading

I can then modify pitch, frequency and delay time all with potentiometers I have rigged up to the Arduino. Coding is extremely easy, so it didn’t take long to modify some free code found on the ‘net. In the above video, I’m... Continue reading
