John Legelis – Final Project Proposal

The goal for my final project is to make an oscillator/synthesizer with a record and playback function. The user interface will resemble the following sketch.

The components of this software are a keyboard as well as a drum machine. I will aim to automatically quantize the rhythms in order to give the playback a better sound and buff out difficulty with keyboard delay etc.

The keyboard functionality will be linked to actual keys on the computer of the user and the pitch bend function will be actuated by the mouse. The drum pad will be actuated in a similar way to the keyboard with the number keys. I am a bit apprehensive about all the levels of interaction the user is intended to have in the end in terms of clickable buttons etc. I hope this product will be fully functional as a fun musical instrument.
