Reilly Spitzfaden (they/them)Wah-wah pedal + distortion + contact mic + metal boxI made an expression pedal -> MIDI device with an Arduino, and I'm using it to run a "wah-wah" pedal effect in Max/MSP, with a distortion at the end. I'm testing this out for some music I'm writing<a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/MaxMSP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MaxMSP</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/NoiseMusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#NoiseMusic</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/ExperimentalMusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ExperimentalMusic</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/SoundArt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SoundArt</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Arduino" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Arduino</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Maker" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Maker</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Electronics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Electronics</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/MIDI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MIDI</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/ContactMic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ContactMic</a>

nddenticoFor this track I attached a contact mic to a young white ash tree. I was immediately struck by how audible the leaves blowing in the wind were. I could've sat there for hours listening to this. <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SoundArt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SoundArt</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/FieldRecording" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FieldRecording</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/ContactMic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ContactMic</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SoundCollage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SoundCollage</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/AmbientMusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AmbientMusic</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/ExperimentalMusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ExperimentalMusic</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/MusiqueConcrete" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MusiqueConcrete</a><a href="https://histaminetapes.bandcamp.com/track/nd-dentico-fraxinus-americana" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://histaminetapes.bandcamp.com/track/nd-dentico-fraxinus-americana</a>

It contains the Metsään charge amplifier for contact microphones that has a very wide frequency range which includes the low end (BASS!), compared to the usual tinny pure piezo disc squeals.An array of clamps and brackets make it possible to attach all kinds of material and resonance bodies/receptors in a modular fashion, so you can have different set-ups for different sessions or swap parts on the fly (and record the engineering sounds as well). It works great with a looper and/or a effect pedal chain or to record samples for later arrangement in the classic ‘musique concrète’ way.The MCP consists of a recycled and painted (industry burnout camo patterns, in black and chrome) wooden box and has a strip of coarse sandpaper on its surface for some extra crunchy sounds. It comes with a selection of objects (as seen in the demo video), so you can start experimenting right away. But i urge you to also experiment will different materials. It’s best powered by 9V DC battery with adapter clip (included), but it also works with a high grade 9v DC boss-style (minus inside) pedal power supply, but low quality PSUs will introduce hum into the audio signal.
