Generative music using Isadora

Thanks everyone! Plenty to think about here.
The midi programme might be my way forward 😊

Makey Makey
I've only just looked up what Makey Makey is, it looks amazing! How does it interface with Isadora? Do I need any extra software?

@crystalhorizon This video is very useful thanks.
One question, when I double click on my AUDistortion actor, its just collapses and expands it rather than opening up the second window. Any thoughts why that might happen?

To get it to pop up, it needs to be connected in the in and outputs

Makey Makey works as a tiny keyboard, so you just need to put some Keyboard Watchers in Izzy.

@crystalhorizon Ahhh that makes sense.
Is there a guide anywhere on the AU actors? I don't really understand them as much

If you are serious about generating music via software, I recommend you check out Chuck, a powerful programming language designed for digital musicians which you can link via midi to other programs like Isadora. I recon it's not so easy to learn at first, but there's plenty of tutorials and it's really great once you understand it.

@dbini Cool! I might have to invest! :)
-
@haradan I've just had a look at it... I'm not sure I'm that serious about it yet haha! Maybe one day though...
I was really trying to find out if Isadora had a way of generating its own sound without using sound files/external sources

It’s also worth noting that the Makey Makey works without any drivers or special software on Mac and Windows
Best wishes,
