Do you think something good can come from a piano controlled by a gamepad? At first, I thought “no” and now I think “no”. Well, maybe your opinion is different, but that’s because you haven’t seen the video from the two Microsoft developers who hacked this up.
Anyway, even if they sing horribly it’s a neat example of how technology can be combined to create music, even bad one.
The horizontal axis of the joystick controls the pitch of the sound and the vertical axis controls the velocity, while one of the buttons controls the sustain pedal.
Of course, this is not something you would like to see playing in a classical orchestra.
