Technology for Music Education "O generator"


Let me introduce another cool program that you can use with your iPhone and iPad.


O-Generator (http://www.o-­‐music.tv/) is built around a unique type of 16-step, circular pattern sequencer. It is very sophisticated and advanced program that has three different versions of Acoustic, Urban, and Dance. Dots are arranged in four concentric rings of 16 dots each. One full circuit represents a measure of 4/4 time so that students can assign different items as detailed as sixteenth notes. The tempo can be adjusted, and the volume level of each ring can be set independently as well. Once students are done with their projects, the work can be exported to audio file so that students can incorporate their work into other music productions. The program only offers up to four track and rings of 16 dots cannot be changed. O-­Generator is available for both PC and Mac and now available on apple store for iPhone, iPod and iPad!! How exciting!
