Here’s my final project for Multimedia Authoring II:
Beatbox Sound Sequencer
Go try it out! Click on HELP for a quick guide on how to use it.
The main controls you’ll want to use are the RESET button and the colored buttons on the right, corresponding to different sounds. Also, give DEMO 4 a try to see what it can do.
I’m acutely aware of the major issue with the app. Not only are the sound timings slightly off, but more insidiously, the sounds occur nondeterministically. That is, given a pattern on the timeline, you’ll hear slightly different timings each time the sounds are played. At the moment I’m not clear on how to fix it. While these mistakes are fractions of a second short, they can still be very noticable. It will definitely bother music majors.
However, I think Beatbox is fun to play with despite its faults.
If you want to try importing a timeline, give this a shot:
1200 540,160,4 638,280,4 722,160,4 512,160,4 512,280,4 302,200,4 484,200,4 694,160,4 652,200,4 456,160,4 484,280,4 694,280,4 386,160,4 512,200,4 666,160,4 540,200,4 330,240,4 638,160,4 456,240,4 302,280,4 694,240,4 456,200,4 610,280,4 358,200,4 484,160,4 540,280,4 274,160,4 666,280,4 456,280,4
