My project for this course fills a pedagogical / educational role, and serves as a basic introduction to the frequency range of musical instruments. I have created an interactive diagram that provides information on the frequency ranges and characteristics of various instruments. My goal was to create a final product that could be implemented as part of a musical education web page. Because of my previous experience with MAX/MSP in other music courses, I choose to use this program to complete my project. MAX allowed me to fully customize my diagram, adding and manipulating aspects of the diagram as I see fit to fulfill its purpose. During this course I become more proficient in MAX/MSP and in creating MAX patches using the "hover", "coll", and "sfplay~" objects. My final project submission resembles a frequency chart, overlaid with the ranges of various musical instruments. Mousing over different areas of the chart brings up information on the instruments, and clicking on a certain instruments plays a sample of the instrument's frequency range capabilities.
Sound samples were used from Kontakt and from the Philharmonia Orchestra youtube channel. https://www.youtube.com/user/PhilharmoniaLondon
