This is a demonstration of miniTamTam, a music application for the OLPC XO computer.
Welcome to the MiniTamTam demo tutorial.
00:00:00
MiniTamTam is an application that will be included on the OLPC XO computer.
00:00:06
It has three applications, MiniTamTam, the TamTam Editor, and SynthLab,
00:00:11
that will allow children to play music on the XO computer.
00:00:17
So I will first show you MiniTamTam.
00:00:21
So to launch MiniTamTam, you move your cursor to the frame of the screen,
00:00:23
and you launch MiniTamTam by clicking on the little drum icon here.
00:00:31
So once you are in MiniTamTam, you will see the interface,
00:00:39
which consists of different instrument icons here,
00:00:43
and you have the right part, which controls the different drum and beats,
00:00:46
and then you have sliders at the bottom.
00:00:52
So I will start with the icons here.
00:00:54
So each icon represents a sound, and when you click on it, you can hear it.
00:00:57
So for instance, the piano, saxophone, bottle here.
00:01:01
You can also select different sounds by moving the arrow keys on the keyboard.
00:01:07
So you can cycle through sounds, and this is quite handy when you want to quickly preview what sound you want.
00:01:12
This is a little didgeridoo here.
00:01:18
So you can actually play the sounds, the different instruments, using the OLPC XO keyboard.
00:01:22
So if I start here, you see this is a normal major scale,
00:01:28
and the keyboard is laid out like a piano.
00:01:34
So actually it starts on the Z key for the lower octave,
00:01:37
and stops on the comma here,
00:01:44
and you have the black keys of the piano on the upper row.
00:01:46
So starting at S, you have C sharp.
00:01:51
So you can easily play like a normal piano.
00:01:58
So I will just choose another sound, which will be easier to...
00:02:00
So I can do a major chord, I can do a minor chord, like a normal piano,
00:02:03
and the second octave starts on the Q key.
00:02:09
And once again, you can do the black keys by pressing 2 and 3, then 5, 6 and 7.
00:02:16
So now we will look at the drum sections.
00:02:23
So basically, to start a drum, the drums are generated by an algorithm.
00:02:27
So each time you generate a new drum, the beat will be slightly different,
00:02:32
and you have three parameters you can use to control the drum.
00:02:35
You have the complexity of the beat,
00:02:38
you have the length of the beat, which means the length of the actual loop,
00:02:40
and you have tempo.
00:02:45
And I will start a beat to show you.
00:02:46
So you click the little dice there, which will start a beat.
00:02:49
You can then choose different drum kits.
00:02:54
You can choose the Arabic kit here.
00:02:56
You can choose the African kit.
00:03:01
And now if we want to change the parameters, we can change them in real time.
00:03:05
So I can select here the complexity and erase it.
00:03:08
And as you see, the beat is more complex now.
00:03:12
You can also change the length to a longer value.
00:03:14
So now the loop is longer.
00:03:21
Then the tempo, we can slow it down.
00:03:25
Put it faster.
00:03:33
Put it faster.
00:03:36
And each time I click on the dice, I will generate a new beat
00:03:40
using the parameters of the sliders.
00:03:44
Then we have the stop and play button here,
00:03:48
which you can use to stop or play your beat.
00:03:51
And when you have a beat running, I will just put it a little slower.
00:03:56
You can play the keyboard and the instruments.
00:04:05
Now I will just stop the beat here.
00:04:18
So there are two sliders at the bottom of the screen.
00:04:24
There is the volume slider here.
00:04:26
So if I put it down, you will see the sound is lower and I can erase it.
00:04:28
It's a normal volume slider.
00:04:32
Then you have the reverb slider.
00:04:36
The reverb will add some reverb to the sound.
00:04:38
So if I put it up, you can hear a little echoing there.
00:04:41
And now if I start a beat, there will be some echo or reverb on the beat also.
00:04:48
You can choose this kit here.
00:04:56
And start it again.
00:05:02
Actually, I need to generate.
00:05:03
Ah, there we go.
00:05:05
So now we have a lot of reverb on the drum.
00:05:08
Now I will explain that lower row here,
00:05:12
which you can see four little microphones here.
00:05:14
And above the microphones, you have little record buttons.
00:05:19
So this means that you have four slots where you can record your own sound.
00:05:21
And to do so, you just click the record button here.
00:05:25
And then you can play it back on the keyboard.
00:05:33
So now you see that I have some reverb.
00:05:35
I will just remove a bit of reverb there.
00:05:37
And then you can play it like any other instrument.
00:05:41
There you go.
00:05:49
So now you can record up to four sounds using the microphone slots.
00:05:50
And then we have the SynthLab buttons here.
00:05:54
SynthLab is another application within TamTam
00:05:57
which allows you to create your own sounds using synthesis.
00:06:00
So to open SynthLab, you can just click the little record button here,
00:06:03
which will open a preset in SynthLab.
00:06:07
And I will explain this in another video.
00:06:10
But for now, we can just hear what this preset sounds like.
00:06:12
There we go.
00:06:18
It's a little long, so I'm just going to adjust the duration here
00:06:19
because I want to show you how it integrates with Mini TamTam.
00:06:21
So when you're happy with the sound there, you just click record here.
00:06:26
Click your sound.
00:06:29
Play it on the keyboard.
00:06:30
You can play multiple notes also.
00:06:31
Close it.
00:06:33
And then the sound will be in Mini TamTam.
00:06:34
And you can record up to four sounds also using this technique.
00:06:38
So this is pretty much the end of the Mini TamTam tour.
00:06:43
We will show you a SynthLab video pretty soon.
00:06:46
I hope you enjoyed it.
00:06:49
Thank you.
