Instruo Pocket Scion: Making Music with Nature
Can plants actually play synthesizers? Today, we're exploring Pocket Scion by Instruo - portable biofeedback instrument that translates natural electricity of living things into music. In this video demonstrate device's 4 internal sound engines, using both its touch-capacitive interface and sensors (plugged in to portato!) Finally, stick around until end for detailed look at companion App, where we unlock advanced features like MIDI scaling, channel routing and OSC (Open Sound Control) data visualization. Whether you are modular synth veteran or just curious about bio-sonification, this guide covers everything you need to get started. Timecodes: 00:00 - Intro 00:34 - Device overview 01:31 - First sound (it's magical!) 02:23 - Exploring the main controls (volume, sensitivity) 03:19 - Instrument 2 04:03 - Instrument 3 04:34 - Instrument 4 04:51 - More controls (transpose, number of voices) 06:03 - How to keep track (look at front plate) 06:59 - Trying the sensors (potato time!) 07:47 - Let's play! (performance) 16:05 - Look at App 16:52 - Per-instrument adjustments (scales, ratcheting) 17:34 - MIDI modes (single vs multi channel) 17:54 - Accessing the data directly (OSC) 18:15 - Per-voice adjustments (octave range/offset, MIDI channel, CC#) 18:58 - Easter egg (raw data mode) 19:25 - Final thoughts www.instruomodular.com/product/pocketscion/ Playlist: https://rutube.ru/plst/955555 #Instruo | #PocketScion Original video: https://youtu.be/jWhrPlvufkM
