Do you sway in your car seat when a cool tune is on the radio? Me too, those damn songs are embarrassingly catchy. Ever since I saw theWiiJ videoI’ve wanted an easy way to control my music in a new way, although theMXPlay pluginprobably wouldn’t be safe to try while driving:
“With the WiiMote plugin you can control the AudioSpace in MXPLAY. Spatially remix your music – roll, flick or pitch your WiiMote and watch/hear the effects in MXPLAY. The plugin requires a Wiimote and a PC with Bluetooth wireless.”
Watch the video and you’ll get an idea of what the heck they’re talking about. Basically, instead of adjusting the volume higher or lower on a one dimensional number line, you get to change the audio’s two dimensional distance from a center point. The center point being Nintendo’sgiant pile of cash.
For a complete guide on rocking and rolling the Wiimote, check out thisgraphical instructionspage. Which is an upgrade from theonly instructionswe’ve gotten from Nintendo so far. Now we just need to someone to hackGuitar Heroto play with these spatial controls. If you thought watching people fidget around on aDDRdance pad was funny, then three dimensionalDDRarm waving Wiimote controls would be hilarious to witness in action. Anddangerous.
