GMU:Max/MSP visual programming/Jiannan Zhang/1.Project introduction

From Medien Wiki

1. Concept

My idea is to create a simple music instrument installation using Max/Msp. At the end we should be able to play music with the laptop keyboard, just like the application "Garage Band" or piano app on mobile phones.

The main function I would use is the sequencer we learned at the beginning in class. I would also find the chart that compares tunes with frequency of sound to make a complete scale of music.
