Controlling a Modular Synth with a Modded NES Power Glove #MusicMonday
One of the greatest makers around, Sam Battle over at Look Mum No Computer, has modded an NES Power Glove to control his modular synth setup. Here’s more from engadget:
Never mind controlling a modular synth by twiddling knobs. If one modder has his way, one of Nintendo’s legendary controllers is the way of the future. Look Mum No Computer (aka Sam Battle) has hacked an NES Power Glove into a gesture controller for his modular synth setup. All he has to do is bend his fingers to adjust the filter cutoff, pitch, pulse width and volume. Yes, the result is just as strange and beautiful as it sounds — Battle just has to wriggle his fingers to add an extra flourish to an electronic tune.
