A couple nights ago my friend Andre and I were messing around with MIDIviaNet, he was tapped into my Korg X5DR.<\/p>\n
What the heck is MIDIviaNet???\u00a0 It’s a cool little app that allows you to connect to a MIDI device over the Internet!<\/p>\n
How does that work?\u00a0 Well, MIDIviaNet only sends\/revieces MIDI data, not actual audio.\u00a0 In order for Andre to hear the sound that was coming out of the synth from across the Atlantic, we used a really long Dixie-Cup Phone…<\/p>\n
…what?<\/p>\n
Ok, we used TeamTalk!\u00a0 What does that mean?\u00a0 The short version is, Andre plays music from his place, I hear it “live”, and then he hears it a few seconds later because of the various delays involved in the process of sending the TeamTalk audio.\u00a0 So to do this and play anything coherent requires a fair amount of work knowing how to keep\u00a0your timing!\u00a0 Or you can have a ‘substitute’ sound respond to you live at the “player’s side”.<\/p>\n
Anyway, what follows is the result of all\u00a0that.<\/p>\n
I also\u00a0made a quick remix\/song from one bit which is pretty cool.\u00a0 Enjoy!<\/p>\n
