Title says it all…

Make a cool drum machine and have social interaction at the same time!

If you own a PC, a webcam, and have access to a printer you could make yourself a cool little DIY hardware step sequencer. The D-Touch Synth and Drum Machine is a software-based, hardware-controlled system where the hardware is absolutely free (you build it with paper, which means no confusing soldering or wires). Just print out the paper control surface, form the cubic control pieces and set up your webcam accordingly. When you move the pieces of paper horizontally or vertically, it changes the timing and other control parameters of your drums and samples…or samples for that matter. Could be a great social interaction tool if someone was looking to get a lot of attention/promotion during second Saturday events here in Sacramento.

Setting up a home studio and want it to look Sexy?

The computer of tomorrow is here today! It’s really, really…well, it’s what I want to look at for inspiration when I sit down to make a track or do some mastering. Yes, it might not be the most practical piece of hardware in terms of cost, but the loveliness alone is worth its weight in gold.

Builder Pius Giger (aka Lessdegrees) brings us the “Edelweiss” that boasts an interesting looking hardware system including lots of pretty lights and a fully water cooled motherboard, processor, and harddrive.

If you’re in the market for a new PC, chances are you should go for an HP, Acer, or whatever. If you’re in the market for a new sports car, but think you might have more fun bragging to your friends or fellow hardware geeks with a great looking centerpiece for your music creating workstation, then you could start considering this beautiful beast.

The Mixable Dancer!

What we have here is the world’s first “mixable” YouTube video. It doesn’t always work perfectly but does most of the time and is crazy fun, if even only for a few minutes. Remix video as it plays in real-time using the on-screen timeline-fixed sample bank embedded in the video. As you work the dancer on the screen changes in synchronized fashion.

Have fun Sacramento!!!

I’m with Coco Sacramento!
