Merci beaucoup !

a quick note to let you know that there is a visual bug under any OS that is set to use the fancy windows themes, like rounded buttons and fades...

to get things right, you new to switch into Perfomance mode under XP, or set the theme to "Classic" in Win7. Yah, it will reminds you of the good old Win2000 days

that is until I find a way to set colors properly into that fancy world.

thanks goes to Brad for help finding this out.

You can now re-download from the same link, and a newer version is there. Look in the top right corner options if you can't see the interface.

try barbie pink interface!! it's NIce


also fixed a bug with noise notes code, that would try to send data even if PIC option was not selected.

Hi Flipper

WOW this really is something !

You know anyone could (with some tweaking to a Jean Michel Jarre with a PIC !

Combine your PIC code with something Skimask was busy on [HTML]http://www.picbasic.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=5407&highlight=finger+touch[/HTML] and maybe a few Led's and a laser pointer or two and whammo you have a hit !
In fact , interface your Windows proggie with a media player, feed it to the same sound source and you have an LED touch DJ panel with sound to light !

I will keep an eye out for it !

Many thanks

Kind regards
Dennis

agreed that possibilities are totally endless


I already hooked a frequency bargraph on my board right aside, since I needed a frequency analyser to catch the sounds emitted by the pic in the first place.


here is a newer Beta version, with Basic MIDI output, and some other tweak.

watch out, it could be pretty loud and there no volume control
But i do like the midi sounds...a bit more than the PC beeper LOL

Hey Flipper

Awesome !!
Will give it a shot and feedback when I can :-)
Maybe a light organ ??

.....Or touch-sensitive :-)
Think the light-organ would be something even more quite unique as an add-on or option for your code (or new code!)

Would love to try it out if ever you get to do it !

Hi Dennis

I'm not too sure on how things would get hooked between light sensor/program/ and another pic making sound?, but if you can describe the loop I might check into it.

I would hope to add multitrack capability one day, or maybe easier and more powerfull, a plain Midi track importer/converter.
Then a whole bunch of 12f683 would share the data, singing along


here is a light organ, sort of

i've just added it into my program, as default sample track.
