iPod Touch & TouchOSC Controlling a C64

Little-scale writes:

I made a quick video of using an iPod Touch and TouchOSC to control a Commodore 64 in real time.

Using the default ‘Keys’ patch for TouchOSC, a number of parameters of the Commodore 64s sound chip, the SID, can be controlled:

• Note on and off commands for two octaves’ worth of piano keys

• Attack

• Decay

• Release

• Filter frequency

• Filter resonance

• Enable / disable triangle waveform

• Enable / disable sawtooth waveform

• Enable / disable pulse waveform

• Pulse wave duty cycle

  1. The death of Cynthcart

  2. Not really, Cynthcart is great for live stuff, and I guess this is better for esoteric forms of control or sequencing or generative music controlled by a host computer etc. My $0.02 :)

    Cool! More details on the interfacing would be interesting.
