Hi all.
I don't do any midi stuff.
I've messed around with it a bit and understand the basics but I'm
wondering if a certain midi "feature" (not sure what to call it) exists.
Let's say you have a pre-recorded bass track......
And you create a midi file out of it....
Would it be possible to trigger each individual note of that midi
file with, say, a kick pedal in real, human time?
This would mean that every kick drum hit would trigger a new note
(the next one in the series) but would still be triggered by a human
being's sense of rhythm.
You could have a look at SuperCollider - it's an audio synthesis
programming language, where some of the built in language functions do
various audio-related things. Programming something like this would be
a fair bit of work, but it should definitely be possible.
You could also have a look at Pure Data (aka Pd): it's also an audio
synthesys language, but of the dataflow type... It shouldn't be too hard
to implement what you describe:
- save bassline pitches to 'something' readable by PD (text-file, array
etc.)
- create triggering mechanism for bass-drum (basically an audio trigger)
- when note is to be triggered send it to some form of bass synth which
could be:
a) directly imlpemented in Pd
b) midi (using Pd's 'midiout' features)
Of course don't take may draft too literally :)
Good luck
