WHAT: Portable, recording beatbox looper machine. But with a twist. I want to integrate this with a processing script that can "read" the beatbox notes/sequences and save them in midi. I also want to integrate a drum machine into it as an extra channel.
OBJECTIVES: #1. recording beatbox looper with tempo modulation #2. ability to lay over conventional drum machine channel. #3. Output in a way that can be "read" and reproduced (if i beatbox a snare, i want it to read "snare" in a drum machine track)
HOW: for starters, i will probably prototype this in processing on my desktop. To be portable, i will likely go arduino based. Requires memory, so probably a SD reader of some. Adafruit waveshield would probably help. I dont know much else about programming with sound - but that hasnt stopped me yet.
APPLICATION: Yes. i know there's an app for the iphone that is a simple drum machine. but what if you wanna lay down a beat you have in your head? you already hear it in your head - so if you can come CLOSE to beatboxing it, then overlay or add actual drum machine effects to it?
then i just need to find someone who can spit worth a dime.
