Miusic Part 2: Immediate Feedback and MIDI

 Maybe it didn't have to be its own part...

Anyways for immediate feedback the process became a little more straight forward, since we have 3 levels for the touch sensors I decided to use 3 different ProbKey keyboards tuned to 3 different chords that are dissonant between them.Each of them receives a gate trigger from a CC message. I then pass the signal through the same type of oscillator I use for the harmony and add it to a distortion filter before merging the signals together.

Using Alright Devices Chronoblob2  which generates a stereo delay, I separated the Right and Left outs of the ping-pong calibrated module and send each of them to a different type of distortion. For the left I used THORNS and for the right Disto. Both signals then go into an additional Reverb effect with the objective of scaling the distortion and crunchiness with the overall distress level.

Finally and to not elaborate heavily upon it. I mapped out the specific MIDI messages I needed to send and how much of each did I need to synchronize with the distress level.

I took 2 sets of notes, one for channel 2 and channel 3 of the virtual cable. 

Most values start changing from the 50% of the maximum distress level, and have their own equivalences measured subjectively when making the patch.

The changes in frequency for the base note that I mentioned last post however, change from 40% to 80% and then 80% to 100% with a more aggressive spike towards the end for which a new branch condition has to be submitted.
