Hey guys, Over the past few days I've been playing with "peer control" in Jeskola Buzz (music production software). It's this neat thing that allows you to map a bunch of parameters from effects, synths, etc. onto a single control (like a MIDI knob). I didn't really understand why this would be useful until I started playing around with it. To demonstrate simple usage of it, I whipped up two demos:
http://downloads.mixxx.org/beats/Peer%20Control%20Demo%201.ogg http://downloads.mixxx.org/beats/Peer%20Control%20Demo%202.ogg In the first demo, I've chained the note length, a wet level of a delay, and a highpass filter's cutoff frequency together, and I'm varying them together using peer control during the breakdown sweep. In the second demo, I've chained just the delay wet level and the highpass filter together, again during a quick breakdown. I'm posting these to mixxx-devel because I think it'd be neat if we could implement this sort of thing in Mixxx somewhere down the road. Being able to chain LADSPA effects together could lead to some pretty crazy stuff, and I think people would dig the simplicity. Remember, I did those funky breakdown sweeps by turning a single knob. :) Anyways, my other random idea is that it might be useful for new DJs if we bundled some ~2 minute long "training" tracks that can help people learn to beatmix. If we had some YouTube tutorials showing how to use them, it might be a hit. What are people's thoughts on this?
