  • A Framework for Embedded Digital Musical Instruments
    A Framework for Embedded Digital Musical Instruments Ivan Franco Music Technology Area Schulich School of Music McGill University Montreal, Canada A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. © 2019 Ivan Franco 2019/04/11 i Abstract Gestural controllers allow musicians to use computers as digital musical instruments (DMI). The body gestures of the performer are captured by sensors on the controller and sent as digital control data to a audio synthesis software. Until now DMIs have been largely dependent on the computing power of desktop and laptop computers but the most recent generations of single-board computers have enough processing power to satisfy the requirements of many DMIs. The advantage of those single-board computers over traditional computers is that they are much smaller in size. They can be easily embedded inside the body of the controller and used to create fully integrated and self-contained DMIs. This dissertation examines various applications of embedded computing technologies in DMIs. First we describe the history of DMIs and then expose some of the limitations associated with the use of general-purpose computers. Next we present a review on different technologies applicable to embedded DMIs and a state of the art of instruments and frameworks. Finally, we propose new technical and conceptual avenues, materialized through the Prynth framework, developed by the author and a team of collaborators during the course of this research. The Prynth framework allows instrument makers to have a solid starting point for the de- velopment of their own embedded DMIs.

    AALTO UNIVERSITY School of Science and Technology Faculty of Information and Natural Sciences Department of Media Technology Markku Reunanen Computer Demos—What Makes Them Tick? Licentiate Thesis Helsinki, April 23, 2010 Supervisor: Professor Tapio Takala AALTO UNIVERSITY ABSTRACT OF LICENTIATE THESIS School of Science and Technology Faculty of Information and Natural Sciences Department of Media Technology Author Date Markku Reunanen April 23, 2010 Pages 134 Title of thesis Computer Demos—What Makes Them Tick? Professorship Professorship code Contents Production T013Z Supervisor Professor Tapio Takala Instructor - This licentiate thesis deals with a worldwide community of hobbyists called the demoscene. The activities of the community in question revolve around real-time multimedia demonstrations known as demos. The historical frame of the study spans from the late 1970s, and the advent of affordable home computers, up to 2009. So far little academic research has been conducted on the topic and the number of other publications is almost equally low. The work done by other researchers is discussed and additional connections are made to other related fields of study such as computer history and media research. The material of the study consists principally of demos, contemporary disk magazines and online sources such as community websites and archives. A general overview of the demoscene and its practices is provided to the reader as a foundation for understanding the more in-depth topics. One chapter is dedicated to the analysis of the artifacts produced by the community and another to the discussion of the computer hardware in relation to the creative aspirations of the community members.

    Making and organizing sounds with AALTO A comprehensive guide to signals, scribbles and patching by Madrona Labs is manual is released under the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License. You may copy, distribute, transmit and adapt it, for any purpose, provided you include the following attribution: Aalto and the Aalto manual by Madrona Labs. http://madronalabs.com.

Any trademarks mentioned are the sole property of their respective owners. Such mention does not imply any endorsement of or associ- ation with Madrona Labs. Introduction What is Aalto? It’s tempting to think of Aalto as a mere soware synthe- sizer, yet another sound source, huddling amongst the teeming masses of such instruments that lurk within the menus of your favorite audio program. However, that would be doing it a disservice, for Aalto is, we think, really special. We like to think of it as a carefully craed box of sonic tools, few enough to learn easily, but flexible enough to combine in surprisingly powerful ways. Of course, it’s also just a good everyday instrument, if that’s what you want. Aalto, like many modular synthesizers, comes stocked with oscil- lators, filters, envelope generators, and goodies such as a waveshaper section and an especially nice one-knob reverb. Aalto’s twist (at least, the one we chortle about as we sip vintage armagnac in our secret lair halfway up the Space Needle,) is that thanks to the unique patching in- terface, making your own sounds with Aalto, even complicated ones, need not be a chore.

  • Trackerit: Paradigman Synty, Kukoistus Ja Myöhemmät Vaiheet
    Trackerit: paradigman synty, kukoistus ja myöhemmät vaiheet Markku Reunanen Trackerit ovat tietokoneiden musiikkiohjelmia, joiden historia ylettyy yli kol- menkymmenen vuoden päähän. Ne kytkeytyvät tiukasti kotitietokoneiden his- toriaan, eikä ole liioittelua väittää, että ne toivat aiemmin saavuttamattomissa olleet digitaaliset sävellystyökalut harrastajien saataville 1980-luvun kuluessa. Kolmen vuosikymmenensä aikana trackereita on käytetty kaupallisiin ja harras- tustarkoituksiin, ja niiden ympärille on syntynyt aktiivista harrastuskulttuuria. Tässä artikkelissa käyn läpi trackerien historiaa, ominaispiirteitä ja käyttökohtei- ta. Tutkimusaineistona on 60 tracker-ohjelmaa ja kuusi niiden tekijöiden haas- tattelua. Tutkimustuloksissa korostuvat trackerien ja aikalaisteknologian välinen tiivis suhde, ohjelmien tekijöiden taustat ja mielenkiinnon kohteet sekä paradig- man vaiheittainen kehitys nykyiseen muotoonsa. Johdanto1 Trackerit, tai kotoisammin träkkerit, ovat musiikin säveltämiseen tarkoitettuja ohjelmia, joista ensimmäiset ilmestyivät 1980-luvun lopun suosituille kotitie- tokoneille, kuten Commodore 64, Commodore Amiga ja Atari ST (ks. Saari- koski 2004). Trackerit voidaan nähdä varhaisena askeleena kohti laajempaa kehityskulkua, jonka myötä aiemmin saavuttamattoman kallis ammattimainen studiotekniikka tuli koteihin harrastajien saataville. Vuonna 2019 paradigma on edelleen voimissaan: uusia trackereita ja ohjelmaversioita ilmestyy vuosittain, ja ohjelmien ympärillä on niihin keskittyneitä aktiivisia yhteisöjä. Thomas Kuhn (1962)
