I'm looking to add some sound to a NQC-based robot, and I think it would be
nice
to get away from my usual functional machine-like beeps, towards something
happier and friendlier. Artoo's beeping seems like a good approach, and before
I
spend a lot of time trying to mimick it, since I'm pretty weak at sound, I was
wondering if it's been attempted already. Judging from a review of the
Mindstorms Droid Developer set, that's not the place to look for
artoo-inspired
beeps, and Google isn't turning up much :(

Any leads?
Thanks

You know - I have been thinking of stuff that could be useful to
someone wanting to get certain sounds out of the RCX - and some kind
of composer would be quite neat - which could save a song definition
file, and then export code to play the sound in various formats (NQC,
Robolab etc..). It would have to have at least a PC Playback option to
demo/test it during composition.

I personally dont have the time (for a couple of months) to develop
such a thing - but there are some people here who definately have the
skill for it.

You might have a look at Brick's Music Studio (URL) a quick google for midi to RCX, wav to RCX and the like will turn up other interesting pieces of software that people have done in the past. Regards, Jona (...) (19 years ago, 18-Jun-05, to lugnet.robotics)
