Tools we’ve made
-
Datarates
A standalone web tool that creates MIDI files with notes spaced equally at specific intervals, useful for any situation where you want to sonify a constant real-time flow of data - birth rates, financial transactions, things accumulating or draining.

-
VCV Rack
A free plugin for the VCV Rack virtual modular synthesizer. Convert a .csv file into control voltages that you can send to other modules, using them to sculpt your sound with data. Easy to get started with, but very powerful.

-
Norns Script
A data sonification script for the Monome Norns music computer. It turns .csv files into melodies, MIDI signals and control voltages. Includes adjustable tempo and scale quantizer. Supports Monome Crow and Grid.

-
Data Mapper
A tiny tool that lets you linearly map a CSV file to a range of values that you supply. Originally built for turning data into a collection of notes, but it'll work for any other mappings too. Handy for punk sonification!
