摘要： An invention extending functionality and applications of traditional music keyboards. Individual musical keyboard keys may have individual key displacement sensors measuring key travel. Individual keys may further include surface sensors measuring two additional parameters, creating three independent continuous parameters essential for controlled rendering of vowel sounds and orchestral timbre spaces. Surface sensors may comprise pressure sensor arrays, which, via geometric image-processing, may produce five to six readily controlled independent parameters per key, useful in controlling expressive soloing and long-duration background sounds. Per-key pressure sensor arrays may comprise mass-produced modular components including intelligent distributed image processing to simplify manufacturing and substantially reduce cost. Synthesized tactile feedback may render variable keyboard actions or create nullmultilevelnull key travel functionality. Miniature keyboards may be provided to idle fingers on other musical instruments. Specialized configurations permit keys of two or more keyboards to be played simultaneously with different fingers of the same hand. Outgoing MIDI signals may also be provided.

摘要： A system for expanding and generalizing aspects of an autoharp and making these functionalities beneficially available on other instruments. Strumpads (abstracting string arrays) comprising arrays of isolated touch switches are used to generate MIDI note events according to interpretations of an active mapping. The active mapping may be determined by stored program control selected from chord buttons or foot switches, or may be determined by keys on a music keyboard. The volume of individual strings within actual string arrays may be mechanically or electronically controlled by chord buttons or a music keyboard, and the electronic control can also be made with foot switches or incoming MIDI control signals. Keyboard keys may be provided with key-travel sensors and key-surface sensors for continuously controlling volumes and octave mixings of associated strings.

摘要： A system and method for processing and generating control signals for the real-time controlling of signal processors, synthesizers, musical instruments, MIDI processors, lighting, video, and special effects in performance, recording, and composition environments. The invention provides for the use of incoming control signals to control events and parameters of low-frequency oscillators and transient generators. The invention also provides for the processing of control signal values such as addition, multiplication, mirroring, offset, etc., individually or in combination with one another. The invention further provides for the conversion of one type of control signal to another type of control signal, for example conversion of MIDI nullnot-on messagenull parameters such as note number and velocity into MIDI nullcontinuous controller messagesnull etc. The invention is particularly directed towards, but not limited to, the processing and generation of control signals in the form of MIDI messages.

摘要： A system and method for real-time controlling of signal processors, synthesizers, musical instruments, MIDI processors, lighting, video, and special effects in performance, recording, and composition environments using images derived from tactile sensors, pressure sensor arrays, optical transducer arrays, chemical sensor arrays, body sensor arrays, and numerical computation. The invention provides for null/contact touch-pads, pressure sensor arrays, and body sensor arrays as tactile control interfaces, for video cameras and light sensor arrays as optical transducers, for chemical sensor arrays, and for other numerical image generation from computer processing or numeric simulation. Tactile transducers may be put on instrument keys of conventional instruments, be attached to existing instruments, or be used to create entirely new instrument or controller configurations. Chemical sensor arrays and for other numerical image generation from computer processing or numeric simulation can be used to monitor or simulate natural physical phenomenon such as self-organizing process behavior or environmental conditions. Arrays of scalar or vector values are processed to extract pattern boundaries, geometric properties of pixels within the pattern boundaries (geometric center, weighted moments, etc.), and higher-level derived information (senses of rotation, segmented regions, pattern classification, syntaxt, grammers, sequences, etc.) which are used to create control signals to external audio, visual, and control equipment or algorithms. The invention also provides for MIDI and non-MIDI control signals.
