Awesome Jungleee Music @ 2:02

1000 stars for this project



[BRYAWN]

it's definitly not bass that makes the camera move! it moves from the beginning, and it's not synch with the music...

[punisher17011990]

do u use "reverse" shiftregisters for the digital input?

[Nanovirus5995]

*makes another comment on the fact that the camera does something and demands thumbs up...*

[minimaus08161]

do it faster xD

[GORFF987]

You can do a Metronome...

[xato909]

FL studio 1 :D

[willianpaixaoo]

you're a genius!!!

very cool project!

[thecvideospiczo]

nice

[Angerfist2000]

is ja der Hammer!!!

[kotk05]

good work man! I can't wait till I get my Arduino so I can do cool stuff too.

[carcil01]

How do you do this, is very cool¡¡¡

[spencer8857]

fo shizzle my nizzle, let me hook dat up to my subs.

HA! Just kidding. Great job! Sounds great!

[Louisdagod3]

Awesome. :P How long did it take you?

[ImmortalDestructor]

The slight shakiness is likely caused by the camera being too close to the speaker.

[Soulrider2012]

@ImmortalDestructor I don't think so as the 'pulse' of the distortion doesn't match the sound at all. The pulse is perfectly timed and not with any beat from the music. I think it's some kind of signal interference from something.

[diehardcybercard]

breadboards for the win! this is really nice dude.

[AVAtistar]

Grozooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!

Realy great job man!!! Congratulations for your technical creativity

[gaussman08]

what happens to the camera :S

[littlescale]

um what?

[Twistx77]

I agree with gaussman something was happening to the camera. Don't you see the image gets like dirty ever 2 seconds or so.

[littlescale]

hmm yeah i think it could be the codec im using for compression, perhaps? is that possible?

[Twistx77]

yeah it is posible if you did any processing after getting the video from the camera.

[littlescale]

No, not at all, but I just used quicktime pro to compress the video from the camera (which was a .mov file to begin with).

[Twistx77]

It was probably the compression. I dunno

[geeekbit]

@littlescale I think either the camera or QuickTime was dropping a keyframe or something, it's not a big deal though :P Neat drum machine littlescale :)

[sworteu]

@Twistx77 electromagnetic fields by the sound box

[expertfighter]

@littlescale

he means the little distorsion for every drum

[expertfighter]

@littlescale

he means the little distorsion for every drum

[gaussman08]

has like a ''clik'' in the focus

[Anxo512]

i think that the bass produce a resonance and vibration on the optical parts of the camera

[0xFFender]

@gaussman08 littlescale is poisoned! He should heal at the nearest Pokemon Center! ...sorry, I had to.

[BajorekP]

@gaussman08 camera feels that beats :)

[JMelo19]

Good idea to use DIP switches

[Rodztar13]

NICE!

[paul204533]

so childish

[jdawgsworld]

now this really cool...

[SecularWorld]

Interesting project, i've never used arduino before, do you have to use a special IDE to program? Or its just standard C++ code? Im a programmer and im thinking about using arduino to build a custom MIDI controller (very basic), using some libs.

Do you think is possible?

[Darfk]

It has similar syntax to C++.

You use the Arduino IDE, which is open source.

[jonytonybonk]

i think its uses C programing lang

[cldream]

You have to use the Arduino IDE. but as for the language, I am not sure if it can take C++. for the most part, I know it uses Java(which I have to learn soon to learn how to make my own Arduino projects).

[dtoliaferro]

The Arduino uses a version of C and an open source, crossplatform IDE.

[Theamn800000]

This is the most pointless thing I have ever seen.

[littlescale]

can't please everyone

[treadings]

The point is its fun...

some people..

[bugpowderdust]

not only sounds cool, but it looks great too

[paralasalud]

those little knobs are so cute lol

[BrianWilliamGreen]

wuts the red and white wire pluging into the end of the board.

[littlescale]

thats the audio output :) the white wire is connected to ground, the red wire is connected to the output of the R2R dac

[ronnie9253]

this is one of the most original uses of the arduino i've seen in months; no third party SW, just switches pots and noise, nice one!

[cybercow222]

lol

[Raidenster]

Looks really nice xD I'd like to have one of these.

[littlescale]

thanks! it's pretty easy to make! um, you can see schematics and code on my blog (see link in video info window).

[Intosia]

" Each beat is set by the combination of the two switches." I dont get that. Is the second DIP like a 'Accent' then? Or what else?

[littlescale]

From the link in the movie info: "If the position on the right switch is 0 and the position on the left switch is 0, then nothing is played. If the setup is 1 and 0, then a kick sample is played. If the setup is 0 and 1, then a snare sample is played. If the setup is 1 and 1, then a hi-hat sample is played." This works on a beat-by-beat basis.

[TEMPHUiBIS]

-]. gosh, you can create ya own console .[-

[909techno]

awesome.
