crusher-X "to go" - 100% wireless setup with bluetooth

We like to share with you this 100% wireless bluetooth "crusher-X to go" setup. It creates a lot of fun, it's easy to setup and it is really loud!
 
  • crusher-X 8, MIDIberry and loopMIDI
  • Microsoft Surface 3
  • Marshall Kilburn 1 Bluetooth speaker
  • ROLI Seaboard Block MPE MIDI Controller
  • All battery powered and connected via bluetooth
How it works:
 
crusher-X receives the speakers output via the Surface 3 microphone and granulized the feedback live depending on the MPE controller input and the touch control. crusher-X runs on the stand-alone ASIO VST host that is part of the windows download package. It receives MPE MIDI data from a loopMIDI Loopback Device that is fed by the MIDIberry Bluetooth to MIDI bridge running in the background.
 
For the video recording the speakers output was picked up with stereo microphone attached directly to the camera.
