The Monome is a new music interface with LED-backlit pads, a USB interface that transmits OSC and MIDI data to a computer, and � here�s the unusual part � open source, hackable firmware and software interface. Touch the pads, and you can use this as a step-sequencer and remix tool (as in the example), but the real philosophy here is being able to do whatever you want, so think of the example video as just a start.
