My project is not listed on that page. Below is a description. If you
want me to shorten it, let me know to what degree.<br>
<br>
<p>The Smart Controller is a portable hardware device that allows
performers to
create music using Programmable Logic Control. The device can be
programmed
remotely through the use of a Patch Editor, which is an independent
computer
application that simulates and communicates with the hardware. The
Smart
Controller responds to input control voltage and <st1:place>MIDI</st1:place>
messages, producing output control voltage and <st1:place>MIDI</st1:place>
messages (depending upon the patch). <o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span lang="EN-AU" style="">The device allows users to
create musical textures and events by piecing virtual objects together
with
patch cables on the computer screen, similar to the way a person might
join
pieces from a Mechano set to create a truck, train, crane, ... etc.
With the Mechano set a truck might be created by joining metal panels
with
bolts, adding wheels, windows, motor, … etc., which is just putting
together
pre-fabricated materials in a meaningful way to produce a desired
result.
Smart Controller allows the user to create in a similar way by
connecting
counters, delays, metronomes, flip-flops, calculators, and other such
devices. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<span lang="EN-AU"
style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%; font-family: "Times New Roman";">The
Smart Controller is a stand alone device --
a powerful, reliable, and compact instrument -- capable of reducing the
number
of electronic modules required, particularly the requirement of a
laptop
computer, in a live performance.<br>
