Vallis, Ph.D California Institute of the Arts California Institute of the Arts 24700 McBean Pkwy. 24700 McBean Pkwy. Valencia, California 91355 Valencia, California 91355 United States United States [email protected] [email protected] ABSTRACT Touchpoint is a multi-touch tablet instrument which pre- sents the chaining-together of non-linear effects processors as its core music synthesis technique. In doing so, it uti- lizes the on-the-fly re-combination of effects processors as the central mechanic of performance. Effects Processing as Synthesis is justified by the fact that that the order in which non-linear systems are arranged re- sults in a diverse range of different output signals. Be- cause the Effects Processor Instrument is a collection of software, the signal processing ecosystem is virtual. This means that processors can be re-defined, re-configured, cre- Figure 1.

Swing MIDI Sync The Jam View The Scale Finder Using an own Default Song Changing the user interface size Using the clipboard to exchange presets Creating and importing own preset packages Themes MIDI: Panic Quick introduction: What is Sundog? Sundog is a standalone composition software that sends MIDI notes to other music apps or hardware. The MIDI notes will be sent on different channels so that you can play on multiple instruments at once. Sundog also includes a built-in soundset of over 100 instruments. This way you can use Sundog even without opening your DAW. Sundog makes sure that all notes follow certain harmonic principles. This way your songs will always sound harmonic and interesting. Setup Sundog contains a built-in Preview Synth with 128 different instruments. However, you get the most use out of Sundog if you connect it directly to your DAW/synthesizer with a virtual MIDI cable. There are several DAW specific guides available that explain the setup for Ableton Live, FL Studio, etc. In most cases it's really easy to do, just follow the steps: If you use Ableton Live: How to
