"He's a pirate".. From the Pirates of the carribean :)

I've done a lot of classical music aswell on them..and it sounds AWESOME on some of them.. haven't had the time to get any better video yet though :P And I have to use a external mic to be able to capture the sound somewhat decently..


Toccata will be going up on my youtube channel pretty soon :D

It's a array of floppydrives hooked up to a microcontroller which is again connected to a computer which runs some software that converts midi-music to frequencies that the floppydrives can "play" by controlling the steppermotors :)

Oh no..I do this at home.. for "fun" when I have nothing else to do.
I guess that's sort of sad in a way :D

Atleast it's a learning experience. And something constructive.

Your kids must be so well behaved... lol. It takes me a week to get a regulator fixed because of my kids.

I use a Arduino UNO R3.. (ATMega).. But there are several controllers you can use :)

I really like the arduino though..

The whole floppydrive. I have no clue what they are http://www.techpb.co...ult/biggrin.gif I'm guessing some sort of harddrive.

But for some reason that music they produce is quite astounding.

a floppydrive is what you put floppydisks into if you dont know what they look like look at the picture next to save on you computer

Stop worrying about how you look, and start worrying about how you play. Get out on the field and play paintball the best you can, not stand at home in front of a mirror trying to figure out if your jersey matches your eyes.
