Beatbox Machine- Final Project- Aaron Wirth

For my final project I’ve decided to make a “beatbox machine”. I got this idea kind of from this really awesome musician named Dubfx who creates Dubstep/beat box music with some effects pedals and a machine that loops his voice, he is really awesome so here is a link to one of his songs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bioYs6oAD8g. Anyway, this app pretty much(hopefully) does the same thing he does. You can record your voice as multiple different “beats” (bass beat, main beat) and then play them all simultaneously to hopefully make a very cool sounding tune. The app will also allow for some simple audio effect editors which will be a frequency changer, to make voice sound deeper, a individual volume control and an audio start time delay. It’s pretty hard to explain but it makes more sense if you look at the youtube link and here is a basic layout of my app.
