:TamTam could do without the tempo. When I was in school, our band did just fine without tempo adjustments on the instruments. (to go much faster, give the drummer a dozen cups of expresso) Eliminating the pre-made (inflexible) beat from TamTam would simplify the user interface. Kids can do the percussion themselves; it's a nice skill to learn and it encourages teamwork. [[User:AlbertCahalan|AlbertCahalan]] 12:42, 20 October 2007 (EDT) |

Physical interface for musical instruments
Simple touch switches to control tempo in TamTam, light sensor based musical input.
- TamTam could do without the tempo. When I was in school, our band did just fine without tempo adjustments on the instruments. (to go much faster, give the drummer a dozen cups of expresso) Eliminating the pre-made (inflexible) beat from TamTam would simplify the user interface. Kids can do the percussion themselves; it's a nice skill to learn and it encourages teamwork. AlbertCahalan 12:42, 20 October 2007 (EDT)
