We love the Belgians really – they make great chocolate and beer – and now a Belgian chap, Bert Schiettecatte, has come up with this one – small cubes that you can move around and manipulate MIDI. Check out the video of the Percussa AudioCubes controlling an Elektron MachineDrum.
Here’s the details in their own words directly from Percussa…
Create a stunning live performance by creating musical patterns which sync to each other, or control your MIDI-compatible instruments or software using the cubes. Synchronize cube light patterns to your music!
Create unique lo-fi sounds and musical patterns by moving and combining cubes, without using a computer or complex user interfaces. Each cube is intelligent and exchanges musical information wirelessly with nearby cubes.
Apply lo-fi audio effects to external signals. Moving and combining cubes changes effect configuration and settings. Each cube has a 1�4 inch input and output. Get new sound ideas fast without twiddling knobs.
