Keyboard interfacing
Mar 20th, 2008, 2:14am  
Hey all! I'm an interactive multimedia major in college, and I am just starting a new project. I am very interested in keyboard interfaces, and I am researching others' experiences. I want to teach a synthesizer keyboard to talk to Processing, so that playing specific notes, minor or major chords, etc. will cause a text-based reaction within Processing, reflecting the mood/pitch/volume of what was just played in the form of poetry, sentences, or simple words.

I would appreciate any advice, ideas, input, ANYTHING! It would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks! - Anna

your keyboard should send midi messages that give you note pitch and velocity - use the excellent promidi library (http://www.texone.org/promidi/) for processing to receive and interpret those midi messages for you

I hope that helps - keep us updated on your progress =]

cheers,
-Jeff
