Arduino for Musicians by Brent Edstrom
The Arduino platform provides a virtually limitless range of creative opportunities to musicians who are interested to explore new technologies. In Arduino for Musicians, Brent Edstrom provides a comprehensive guide to the underlying technologies enabling the creation of custom instruments that respond to light, touch, breath, and other forms of control.
"I heartily recommend this book as a way to get started with Arduino or electronics even for non-musiciansBut if you ever wanted to make your own Moog synth or Theremin (and who hasn't) then you will love this book."--Dr. Simon Monk, author and maker "A comprehensive and easy to use guide for everything you may need to know about how to use the Arduino for musical applications. The book is well-organized, allowing both technical novices and experienced music technologists to find the information and guidance they may be looking for."--Gil Weinberg, Professor and Director, Georgia Tech Center for Music Technology "Edstrom has developed a very useful resource for musicians interested in using microcomputer controllers and software tools in Arduino for Musicians. This publication, organized in three sections, serves not only as an introduction for those just learning the world of the Arduino, but also for those learning to use the open-source electronics platform to apply creative applications of the core concepts for the more advanced projects. The intermediate and advanced sections are written in a casual narrative style with well-organized sequencing. The book is a welcome addition as a resource or required text for undergraduate or graduate students enrolled in music technology or related courses in multimedia performance."--G. David Peters, Professor and Head of Graduate Studies, Music and Arts Technology, Indiana University - IUPUI
