ShredBoard is an instrument that usees the conventional keyboard and mouse as input. The keys z-/, a-’, q-] and 1-= are mapped to the notes of four guitar strings starting at E, A, D, G for each row of keys. The mouse is mapped to be used as an effect pedal. There are 2 effects – one that is sort of clean and the second which is distorted. Parameters can be adjust with 3 knobs to produce different tones.

The software is written in AS3 and exported as an AIR application. The sounds are produced in SuperCollider by sending OSC messages via flosc. I had to hack the flosc AS3 classes to send the desired messages to SuperCollider.

An Arduino sound project, Diver is an instrument inspired by old Analog Sequencers and Theremins. It allows creating a four-note looped melody which can be manipulated in real-time with knobs that can assign upto 5 octaves for each note. Each knob lights up to indicate it’s position in the loop.

The top of Diver houses a sensor which can be used to control the tempo of the loop in real-time. Use Diver in live performances or at home to produce awesome loops, melodies and special effects.
