And here’s a teaser of the new, open version of the Echo Archive software.
For those who missed it first time around, this is a piece of custom music software we designed for Opera North a while back. The idea was to create a simple, visual tool for electronic composition to be used by schools, educational facilities etc etc. Its based around words - with visual placement allowing you to control volume and panning of the associated sounds. If you want an idea of how it works, there’s a short video of the original version.
This new version resolves some of the compatibility issues first time around, but most importantly, its completely open, so anyone can upload and use their own recordings, creating their own tools for classes, workshops, compositions etc.
This should be out in a week or so - we’re currently looking for some beta-testers for the Mac version, so if you’re interested, please get in touch!
