Abstract
MYtrOmbone is an interactive system that allows a trombonist to manipulate live electronic audio processing by analysis of the slide position engaged. The system is designed and developed at Integra Lab using an IMU prosthetic (Thalmic Labs Myo armband) worn on the right forearm as a control device. MyoMapper software translates armband data to OSC messages, and a Neural Network machine learning system detects trombone positions from the incoming OSC data. These positions are then mapped to audio signal processing in the Integra Live software that is controlled by the trombonist.
This paper presents the musical context that has led to the development of the system, outlining the way that the system works and its application within the first piece composed for it, 146 Lucina. Finally, we suggest further work to develop and refine the system in the future.
