This video demonstrates BeatBearing – a ball-bearing controlled drum sequencer.
via peterdbennett:
A quick demo of the BeatBearing that I put together for my PhD viva presentation. I captured a lot more footage than this, but had to cut it down for the presentation, I’ll try and get an edit that shows more of the novation launchpad as a pattern selector for the next video!
Seems like someone could easily create a software version of this (with really nice graphics). Could be a fun intro to step sequencing for kids– with a bit of a pseudo-tactile element.
BE DARING!
