==The Augmented Bass==
===Description===
The idea is to augment a bass guitar to
# extend the range of sounds it can make
# control realtime effects with it.
===Goal 1: Drum triggering===
Triggering drum sounds while playing. For example, having low-pitched notes trigger kick-drum sounds and high pitched ones trigger snare-drum sounds.
===Goal 2: Control via inclination===
Making the neck's inclination control an effect. For example, tilting it up increases a reverb's room size.
===Hardware===
* A cheap Cort bass, doesn't sound too good but looks pretty.
* [http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/120796072992#ht_1208wt_1110 Contact microphones]
* Accelerometers
===Milestones===
====November 3rd====
* Bass and contact microphones brought to Hackspace.
* Brainstorming.
