Der Klimawandel im Zeitalter technischer Reproduzierbarkeit: Climate Engineering zwischen Risiko und Praxis

​Hannes Fernow führt interdisziplinär in das Thema weather Engineering ein. Er integriert im Rahmen einer Politischen Hermeneutik wissenschaftstheoretische, technikphilosophische und umweltethische Argumente in historisch tradierte Risiko- und Naturverständnisse und zeigt, dass die Folgen von technologischen Klimaveränderungen nicht verlässlich vorhersagbar sind.

Sample text

These programs offer many different ways to display and manipulate MIDI information and provide a convenient way to capture and store your musical ideas. Note: in order to use a computer and a MIDI sequencer you will need to have the relevant MIDI sequencing software installed before you start. In this chapter we will introduce you to some of the basic functions that you would normally expect to find in a MIDI sequencer. You may also find this chapter useful if you are planning to use a Digital Audio Workstation, as many functions that can be used to manipulate MIDI information can also be used to manipulate audio.

Additionally, you may find other parameters that may be adjusted from this window, such as a metronome or cycle on/off switch. The song’s tempo may also be visible from this window. This is usually displayed as a number and is normally set to 120 as default. This value can be increased or decreased to adjust the playback speed of the sequencer. 46 MIDI Sequencer Basics Fig. 6 – Transport controls. producer s ay s ᭤ Playing in time with the metronome Before you record any MIDI information into a sequencer you will need to set up the sequencer’s metronome so it will produce a click at the tempo you want to play at.

Generally, it’s best to assign each separate device or sound to a separate MIDI channel so that you can communicate with it independently. As there are 16 MIDI channels, this allows you to have up to 16 different instruments playing at the same time. 27 music technology workbook IN OUT THRU Transmit output channel IN OUT THRU IN OUT THRU Module A Module B Receive MIDI channel 1 Receive MIDI channel 2 Fig. 7 – Controller keyboard connected to two sound modules. In the example in Fig. 7, both sound modules will receive MIDI data from the keyboard as module A passes on the data via the MIDI Thru to module B.
