Wiimote controlling Max/MSP to generate IDM beats.

For the final part of my grade for an introduction class I took on computer music I developed some patches in Max/MSP that work with the Nintendo Wii controller to generate IDM style beats. If you're interested in how this worked, please comment! Cheers!

I'm totally interested in finding out how you made this work.

@Natashadoingit I replied to the wrong person, I'm sorry :)

@Natashadoingit His left hand (our right) button triggers the lead/high synth. his right hand, the bassline.

lifting the controller above his head, and behind, controls the lowpass filter on the entire mix, or just the drum loop (since no synths were really playing when he did it).

tilting his left hand on whatever axis is the lowpass of the lead synth.

It's hard to build correlation with a dancer because dance moves don't always correlate to the parameters of the music. here, they do.

ye cool stuff i've used MSP understand that part, but is he just triggering loops and using the wiimote as a controller rather than say using the wii mote as an instrument......
