OTTO ~ GettingStarted

OTTO is a new musical instrument for beat-slicing, the technique that allows to create complex and variegated rhythm sections by using just one rhythmic audio sample, cutting it into little pieces and rearranging them in time. OTTO provides a hardware solution with a strong visual feedback, to allow the musician to control the audio sample as if it was in his hands.

I'll probably do that in the next days. As soon as I have some time to shot a video I'll do that!

Thanks for your comment

Duddeee! I so want one of these! Beats using noob programs on the computer when you can just use the OTTO. Damn, that's cool shit.

holy...fucking..shit.

I've been drudging along my CE degree completely uninspired. This pumps me UP. I'm gonna keep working until I can figure out how to make something as cool as that.

Okay, I know I'm not the only one noticing how this is like a circular Tenori-On. Not to say that it's a bad thing, seems like a fun new way of sequencing.

Really cool device. The finish looks pretty damn nice and ....soft. Anyways, I was wondering if you could give everyone a break down on how to use the device and explain the hand techniques that you use. Also, all the different buttons and what they do.

Great job.
