Music Technology video

Here is the Music Tech demo (WARNING: high cheese factor!!!) that I mentioned in class. You'll see a quickie examples of a Synth, a sample-playback instrument, MIDI, and how you record MIDI and audio on a computer using these technologies.

Incidentally, the audio I played from the DSi in class today formed the basis of a tune posted on my last.fm page. It's called "Fun" and can be heard at http://www.last.fm/music/Tom+Rule/One+Syllable+Songs.

I worked up that bit you heard in class today, then transferred each track of audio into the computer - and added additional tracks as well as some effects on the DSi audio before mixing it down to 2 tracks and loading it into last.fm.
