Monome


The Monome is a device that allows amazing creativity and flexbility for a variety of applications. The most obvious, and perhaps most interesting, is the use of this pad in music sequencing. Basically, the Monome is a hand crafted keypad that can be connected to a computer for use with sequencing software like Ableton Live, and enables a truly hands on experience. Unfortunately, they aren't cheap, the limited edition pads cost from between US$500-1400 depending on the size. A rich kids toy for sure.

Here's an example of how it can be used:
