monome

[Serik4538]

What wrote in your orange book? "Vodka"?

[hotnovel]

is that a book about vodka?

[Malevolenceificatify]

if you hook up the monome to your pc, will you be able to play music and stuff?

[SCA7VDELOUS]

the only question i have is exactly what audio samples do people use? like people like Daedelus.... i want to make songs like him but NO songs have samples that sound good

[BuglerMusic]

Awesome job man, I'll be trading my 40h in for a 128 this week.

[choop82]

Great music and cool book

[toomuchfreetime24]

ill take 12

[TheBarbaraWalters]

i want to buy one of these, and im probably going to. But i need more info on them, one question i have is whats with the 40h stuff, i see them all the time but i have no idea what they mean.

[McTatzi]

good job

[smoovebert]

@McTatzi thanks!

[Zkrudriverz]

whats the difference between the 64 and the 40h?

[smoovebert]

@Zkrudriverz the number of buttons

[Zkrudriverz]

@smoovebert both has 64?

[samanferrari]

Why are these things so freakin expensive?

[smoovebert]

@samanferrari i don't know, i really wish they weren't.

[notepadsucks]

@samanferrari i think its got to do with monome's eco-friendly, made in america, comes in a hand printed box attributes.

[hotnovel]

@samanferrari because they are made from materials they find close to where they live, they are handmade, and the quality is exceptional.

[pwnslayerss]

Can somebody explain to me what exactly a monome is?

By the looks of it... its pretty cool =D

[smoovebert]

@pwnslayerss it's basically a programmable interface that consists of a grid of buttons that are lit by led's. you can hook it up to tons of different music apps.

[pwnslayerss]

@smoovebert

Awww that sounds so cool =D

Wish i could afford one.

[eveAintCool]

seems impressive, but i don't get it...

[Cyanophobic]

monomes are so cool

[variousprojectsnames]

Nice :D

[Pompolius]

nice nice nice

[samdh4]

this thing is so sick. probably the most revolutionary electronic music device after like... guitar pickups lol

[gipknowhow]

very nice!!!!

[mpcbeatdown]

Tight. Nice work friend.

[sheaoneill]

alot like 6 to 800 $s

[seva404]

Ha, you had a book about vodka

[foley49]

how much would one of these cost?

[GAEBASTA]

garage band loops?

[smoovebert]

garage band loops. that's all i had on hand!

[smoovebert]

oh, actually when i watch it again, obviously the vocal samples were from somewhere else as was maybe one other loop, but i mean, i guess that's how versatile mlr is?

[blaxploitation]

when you say mlr what are you referring to? Great beat btw

[krydamoure17]

its a program that comes with the monome and lets you upload your tunes or samples on this neat little thing

[samdh4]

how did you get teh garage band loops to work with it? when i try and drag/drop i cant get them too

[samdh4]

how did you get the apple loops to work w/ MLR?

[jpkabler]

you don't "get apple loops" to work with MLR. MLR is an application that runs in the Max/MSP runtime environment, which you can get for free. It takes a lot more technical prowess to set it up than dumbed down garage band crap, but once you get it rolling its amazing.

[iasifixdog]

how much would cost me a console like this?

[whispers83]

i'm gettin it...

[jpkabler]

Thank you thank you for being the only demo of the monome on youtube i've seen so far that doesn't freakin suck musically

[dodoshlodo]

thu that

[smoovebert]

haha, thanks!

[minichuaman]

that is pretty sweet.

i really like monomes and the things they can do.

do you need a program to do all that with the monome?

[fllwwhtrabbit]

I want one I make beats too!

[THELIGHTMONSTERS]

but for doing a show is it hard to program multiple songs?I mean for one song it seems fairly easy but a whole set?

[MachineGunBallad]

you have samples preloaded for each song, so you just cycle through the samples as your set progresses. if you'd like to see someone who uses a monome masterfully live, i suggest attending one of daedelus' wonderful shows.

[smoovebert]

you can save/load different sets of samples if you wanted to do more than one song--it's not necessarily impossible. keep in mind that much of the software isn't as polished as, say... live or whatever, so do have to be pretty resourceful

[joespenny]

How much would it cost to make a Monomoe the same size as yours?

[hazu24]

about 14 times as much as it will cost for to just buy one.

[Sk8rRaDe]

were do you get those

[max1point8t]

man i wish i had a monome

[stnmr]

what program did you use?

[whodat6231]

That was great man.

[airventmedia]

wicked.

[KeroroGunsouTX]

Sweetness!

[CizreK]

Sweet I need to play like this Everyone I see does it smooth and slow

I always try to do fast paced stuff as if it were a game

(check some of my 40h videos out)

[AWA821]

that sounds really cool

[catwomanstn]

that was really good.. funny thing.. You made my 5 month old daughter fall asleep.. I was holding her and next thing.. OUT.. Great job :)

[smoovebert]

wonder if it was the droning music or my mellifluous pipes

[makemagazine]

Wow that was great! I just got my monome kit and I'm inspired!!!

[smoovebert]

thanks, just mucking about with loops i had lying around.

[kapsico]

how can i get one ? lool... this is sick :D

Monome can be bought by net ?

[smoovebert]

monome dot org

[tombizzurt]

is this just a midi controller or is it as well as a sound module? where are the sounds coming from? computer and ableton? or is it self contained?

[smoovebert]

sounds are comin' from a computer, it's just a controller

[fixpert]

This is so awesome.
