README

This website is an attempt to recreate a MIDI controller using the keyboard. Basically, an online launchpad, similar in function to that of Novation’s Launchpad.

Features:

  • Uses Howler JS audio library for quick and easy audio playing across multiple browsers: goldfirestudios.com/blog/104/howler.js-Modern-Web-Audio-Javascript-Library

  • Uses the Zip.js library to parse .zip files: gildas-lormeau.github.io/zip.js/

  • First of the Year Eqninox by Skrillex sounds, obtained from Nev’s project file: www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAXpBgkXt60

  • Editor Capable of recording and playing back keyboard inputs at varying playback speeds

  • Able to load and save songs to a database, only available to those who have registered an account which can only be done from the console

  • mySql test database and Postgres production database

  • Hosted on Heroku with free hobby plan

  • Front-end written in complete JS with Ruby on Rails for the back-end, a few ajax requests to backend for information

TODO:

  • Downloadable offline version, probably zipped JS, CSS, HTML, and audio files, will have to get rid of server calls

  • Finish editor tools and put recorded parts of songs on main page
