Abstract

You have now been introduced to all the necessary tools, so we can start building some real interfaces. In this chapter, we’re going to build a couple of rather simple interfaces on a breadboard. Since they’re not going to be finished projects, we’re not going to deal with soldering circuits on a perforated board, as the breadboard will serve just fine for our purposes. This chapter acts more like an introduction to using Pd and Arduino to create musical interfaces, and as a kickoff to making really interesting projects for your musical creations.

    It is said that “good” index values for phase modulation are between 0 and 1, but higher values can produce nice results.
