Drum Machine Project

I recently created a drum machine in C# using the directX sound programming library as part of a university project. Through the first and second years of my course programming a been prominent  part however this was the first time working in C#. The project was simply to create a drum machine with 4 voices, that could be play 4 bard of 4 beats. As I progressed in making the program some useful features were added such as:

• 6 Voices
• Voice active indicator
• Voice pan and volume
• Playback head
• Beat and bar indicator
• Set BPM and time signature
• 3 Presets
• Temporarily save presets

Visually I tried to keep it simple however with the additional added features it became slightly over crowded.

Here's a short demo video of the drum machine in action. Please comment and let me know about what you want to see added and what you think should be changed.

Blink Stick

I got myself a blink stick! A small USB device with a single RGB LED I've not had much time to do anything with it yet but its built and ready to go.

Building is simple with only a few components to soldier then its all ready to go.  I'm looking to set it up to show email notifications from multiple email addresses to be displayed with different colors. If that goes well i'm already looking at doing a project with the BlinkStick Pro and some NeoPixles as the ability to control multiple LEDs could prove to be very useful.
