The AirPiano is an innovative musical interface which allows the playing and controlling of software instruments simply by moving your hands in the air. Above the AirPiano is a virtual matrix of keys and faders, each assigned with MIDI messages ready to be triggered. The length of a triggered note is equivalent to the time a hand is placed on the corresponding virtual key, which is also confirmed by LED feedback.

Flash coder André Michelle has come up with a web-based version of the Roland TR-909, the drum machine responsible for most early techno and house beats. The virtual drum machine lets you make beats the way the real thing does, so here’s your chance to see if you have what it takes to be the next Frankie Knuckles. [create a beat and then add some wicked acid synth lines to it]
