USE OSCULATOR WITH WII CONTROLLER SERIES
Once the game’s vocal bar is isolated via a series of filters, an ATMega644 is used to interpret the notes and generate the corresponding tone via a speaker.

Since Rock Band simply listens for the proper frequency to be sung, the pair figured it would be easy enough to monitor the game’s output and feed computer-generated signals back into the microphone. Their Electrical and Computer Engineering final project aims to remove the tone deaf from in front of the microphone, allowing a computer to sing vocals instead. We’re willing to bet that Cornell students have friends like ours. We’re cool with them beating on the drum set completely off-time, but the sound of them trying to sing “Tom Sawyer” makes us want to cut out our eardrums. When it comes to Rock Band, our friends suck at singing. Or you can check out a MIDI hack that goes the other way and uses a drum kit as a Guitar Hero or Rock Band controller instead…Ĭontinue reading “Forgotten Rock Band Drum Controller As A MIDI Instrument” → Posted in Musical Hacks Tagged drum controller, guitar hero, midi, midi controller, MIDI drum, rock band Automating Rock Band Vocals The video with all of the details is after the jump.

USE OSCULATOR WITH WII CONTROLLER CODE
By adjusting example code you can dial in the instrument’s feedback to match the intensity of each hit.

USE OSCULATOR WITH WII CONTROLLER SERIAL
The MIDI jack that comes built into the back of the kit can also be reused as MIDI out when wired to the Arduino’s serial out pin. About 4:50 into the video explains how to add a basic perf-board shield over the Arduino which connects the piezo sensors in each of the drum pads to the analog pins of the micro-controller. After cracking the back of the Guitar Hero drum kit controller open, the main board within is easily replaced with a standard sized Ardunio (which matches the present mounting holes exactly). This looks like a great weekend endeavor for those of us just starting out with MIDI. The whole process as outlined by in under seven minutes. In his project video outlines the steps necessary to turn that unloved plastic into a capable instrument for recording. Forgot to mention, in osculator you want both set to "midi CC" message.Happen to have an old Rock Band drum controller collecting dust in your living room? If you also have a spare Arduino and don’t mind parting with that plastic college memento then you’ve got the bulk of what could potentially be your new percussive MIDI instrument. Weirdly enough it didn't like there being two EQ's on one channel strip, once I had only one EQ on each channel strip that seemed to get things working, honestly it was such a palaver, if you're thinking of doing this yourself, a tip is to map the "roll" first, have only this ticked in osculator, set the controller assignments mode to "scaled" for a nice balanced sweep, don't forget to turn off the learn mode, untick roll, tick "button A" map this to the cut button, set the controller assignments mode to "direct", get that working, honestly please don't forget to turn the learn mode off after each new setting or otherwise you'll have to start again from scratch, I did this about a thousand times *cry with laughter emoji*, um yep, tick "roll" and "button A" if you want to try it out, pretty snazzy, oh if you have button A set to direct mode, the cut will come in when the A button is held down and will release when you let go of it, quite handy I thought, better than a toggle.
