Music can be made with an "arranger" keyboard , selecting
the
tones and accompaniment, including the style, the rhythm,
the chords, the "instruments", effects, loops etc.
I hereby propose a voice and sound controled interface. It
gives a snapping sound of 110 bpm as default (you can ask it
to
change that). Say/sing the rhythm with CH CH... CH CH
CH...
or Pa pa... pa papa, or clap your hands and click your
fingers
(or crack your knuckles) for the rhythm and its style, or
beatbox. Saying Uh-uh or Next will give you a different offer
with your recording still in mind. Saying No No goes back to
an
empty metronome. It listens to your tune and gives a
drumming. Say "No drums"
and that is removed.
Two clicking sounds and you add a track. Say Loop! and it
will loop that section. If it didn't get where the loop starts
and stops, say NO NO and correct it, just like you would tell
a fellow singer.
Sing in different ways to choose the instrument: eeeee for
violin, oooo for oboe, tra tra tra for trumpet and brroom
broom broom for trombone Brrring brring for guitar. Or you
can
just say: Choose grand piano. It will choose grand piano but
if
you say: Wrong, or Not that, it will ask you if you want to
hear
different pianos or just say it again.
Singing the instrument's tune (similar to Hey Siri) Aaaay
Ooooh
puts it into command mode, where you are controlling
everything through words. Singing the other tune Wa Wa
WaWa
Waweeee gets it started back in voice mode.
