TIMBAP - ANALOG IN DIGITAL OUT DJING

Mon, September 15, 2008

Timbap is a new (and free) solution for the digital DJ, developed by students and assistants of the University of Ulm, Germany. It provides a rugged tangible interface for browsing your music collection and manipulating playback by scratching, pitching, and skipping. Like many others it is based on an acoustic timecode signal recorded to vinyl records. In contrast to existing digital solutions however, it completely releases the DJ from mouse, keyboard and monitor. Instead it relies on physical interaction with the standard club turntable only. Timbap does not require any modified hardware. The standard DJ setup (2 turntables and a mixer) can be turned into a timbap digital DJing workstation. The animated video shows how that is done. The Timbap visualizer has been re-implemented from scratch and is now independent from any operating systems or specific runtimes. It only requires Java 1.5.   Download Timbap

You only need a computer with a good audio interface, timecode vinyl (black vinyl doesn't work, only coloured vinyl), a projector and the magic Timbap software...
