Pants For Husband Bedwetting

web tour: Technology & Esotericism

Navigando per il web si incontrano spesso player, controller, mixer e altri "strani aggeggi" che mai avevamo immaginato prima. Vediamone alcuni e proviamo poi a fare qualche considerazione.
Sicuramente il sistema Reactable può competere per una delle prime posizioni di questa stravagante classifica:



si tratta di una sorta di tavolino ma che in realtà è a real musical instrument, with the upper surface illuminated. Are placed on the touch screen of the cubes that represent the various features such as oscillators, waveforms, filters, filter cutoff, effects and audio samples ... the touch screen can display the audio routing, to handle other parameters of the function and create reports.

In the more purely devoted to the player are djing Attigo TT, consisting of two touch screens that allow you to view and manipulate the waveform of a track which means you can scratch, correct the pitch and perform all normal operations that is used to manage and record player cdplayer:




ultratechnological last object selected is the MIDI controller JazzMutant Lemur, another touch screen that lets you view and manage a wide range of MIDI control software. You can customize a large number of screens with different settings depending on the type of features you want to control, thus making it possible to use a single tool for managing parametric equalization for a set with Cubase or Ableton Live:




All these products are certainly very scenic and allow management of their functions particularly intuitive thanks to the extensive use of latest technology and we must emphasize that every product that allows a wider range of possibilities of musical expression contributes to the evolution of music and is an integral part of the process of changing the timbre of sound. For example, without the distortion of the valves would not be born without the rock and the introduction of electronics we would not listen to many genres of music we're used to ...

Reflection and whether it would be useful to stimulate technological innovation, however, each is actually a step forward (and hence the field could be extended not only to musical equipment) and while you need to experience the "new" is also necessary develop a "critical". If the ultimate is simply a replica of the previous product but only captivates more and more expensive or of lower quality may not be a good choice to welcome him with open arms ...
