Unicorn name: OSC.ar when you use Supercollider, of course. I want a t-shirt right away, with the sunglasses, please.

and don’t knock MIDI’s 5 Pin Din, I order it regularly from my local Chinese takeout place.

In addition: The CV task at hand is a big factor to consider. Not all midi to CV devices are created equal. Midi to CV triggering is very different from pitch tracking. Comparing the midi to CV accuracy in my flame clockworks & moog voyager you will find variation.

I can see the appeal for a DIY project, But for midi to CV you can’t beat kenton devices http://www.kentonuk.com/

I really like “You Know CDM”! It’s the most tuneful and fun of the bunch, to me. When does the ‘You Know CDM’ cable TV show launch? Could be good for CDM talk radio, too! ;)

I have a feeling the low frequency response of the visualization isn’t tuned very well. Even straightforward 4/4 techno tracks don’t show the kick drum well. The visualization is clogged up by the bassline. I would prefer an unfiltered visualization as the beat usually also has mid and high frequency energy in it, which helps to recognize it (as in Live’s audio clip waveforms).

Anybody figure out how to disable the scene launch buttons? (using max or midi translators?)
Or make a general editor for this in Max?

@Ezmyrelda: internet… wonderful, ain’t it?

Anyway, anyone getting a hang of the visual beat matching thing? I’ve been toying around with it but find it hard, not to say impossible. But then I’m not a trained DJ (although I’ve learned a bit on a friend’s decks). Is it a question of practice or is it just not that handy?
