Grape piano. Five notes Fun to play with not to eat.

I will update this post to have a video; I just currently am unable to take one. 🙂 My exploration with he makey makey has been fun so far, I’ve been playing with making a drumset using the paper

For this assignment, I decided to have four sounds downloaded from freesound.com with each one being associated to an arrow key, and have two sounds from Max 8 audio files. The first four on the left are from freesound.com, and the first two on the right are from Max 8. The left-most one is a…

I wanted to make a little mix board almost to mess around with some techno beats I found on FreeSound. I also chose to have the individual audio inouts connected to individual outputs to allow for layering the instruments on top of each other. I realized that is may have been not the best way…

While playing around with the Makey Makey, I mostly wanted to focus on creating a “single touch” interface. Even without knowing what I want to do for my final project, I didn’t want the viewer/audience to have to wear anything additional to have to interact with the piece. So I used this sketch as a…

Hello! I recorded some sounds of my classical guitar for this one. Featuring me, playing water with a random tune of my own creation. Enjoy guys!

This project I messed around with Audacity to edit creative sound effects I made around my house. I took to making a granite drawing and making the noise of what each hand I thought would have sounded like. The device is hooked up through a MakeyMakey through MAX and uses all of the six alligator…

For whatever reason, when I started playing with the Makey Makey buttons and sounds, I really wanted to recreate the “Bonetrousle” song from Toby Fox’s Undertale. Something about being able to quickly hop from one note to the other reminded me of the bouncy nature of the song, and I thought it would be fun….

For this sketch, I wanted to use some piano chords to craft my audio player, and Still Dre has some of the easiest chords I know, so it was quick to map it into Max8. The setup used the left, up, and right arrow keys and maps them to a button object which connects to…

For my project, I decided to use rings and a pair of scissors to play some tunes. The following audio clips are recorded from my uke! The chords are labeled for easy reference.

For my audio player, I used graphite as keys for notes spliced up from a song. The initial 5 inputs are notes to a song, and I added a cheeky “beat drop” button for extra fun.

The video above is a demonstration of using the Makey Makey Kit to create a music composition. In total, I used 4 inputs to create the short melody. The Max Patch that I used for the Makey Makey Kit is shown in the image below. I originally wanted to use all 6 inputs, but I…

For my audio player, I used a banana and silverware to play sounds. The audio clips are recorded from my piano. 🙂
